With practical examples, this book shows developers how to use JFC effectively. It helps in understanding what the Java Foundation Classes are, what they allow you to accomplish, and how they work together. It also helps in developing JFC-based applications and components. It includes "Swing" classes, which simplify the development of GUIs.
JFC is about to extend the Java AWT, dramatically improving Java's graphic capabilities and making it possible for developers to build state-of-the-art user interfaces. With practical, detailed examples, Core JFC shows experienced developers how to use JFC as effectively as possible. Understand what the Java Foundation Classes are, what they allow you to accomplish, and how they work together. Walk step-by-step through developing JFC-based applications and components. Learn about each significant JFC class, starting with the JFrame class that establishes the shell of an application. Understand the Java 1.1 event model; approaches for managing the user interface, establishing application control through dialog boxes; and creating menus and toolbars. Learn how to use enhanced JFC user interface components, including the JBorder class; application progress bars with JProgressBar; list and combo boxes; overlapping components. Take an in-depth look at the powerful new text components and the underlying document architecture; examine in detail the tree and table controls and see how to customize them to meet your needs.
Finally, learn how to extend the JFC with custom components and how to write a custom look-and-feel of your own. Essential coverage of all the new "Swing" classes, which dramatically simplify the development of state-of-the-art GUIs. The perfect bridge book to help Java developers migrate from AWT to JFC - and the perfect state-to-finish tutorial for experienced developers new to Java GUI building. Proven Core Series format! The best information and code for real developers with real problems and real deadlines!

Kim Topley has more than 25 years experience as a software developer, and was one of the first people in the world to obtain the Sun Certified Java Programmer qualification. He is now working as a Financial Developer at a leading financial institution in London, England.
