Re: Recommendation on Swing book?





It's advanced subjects on SWING that I like. It also expands into areas that aren't typically covered by Swing guides. I would highly recommend it but it's more or less a companion book to a conventional swing reference.

I have seen references to "Desktop Java Live" by Scott Delap: does anyone have any feedback on this as a Swing guide?

My personal favourite:

Swing - Second Edition, Robinson, Vorobiev - Manning

I recently did a heavy Swing project having done a lot previously with
AWT and the early versions of Swing and found this book to be very
useful. It really needs an even more in depth index but that's the
stumbling block of many a technical book (heck, to do it right the
index'd be as big as the content ;)

I'm beginning two Swing-based projects, one a cross-platform application
and one an applet. I'm looking for a recommendation on a good book on
Swing; I've done Swing programming before, but for these projects I'll
be diving much more heavily into some of the architectural issues, such
as implementing custom components using UI delegates, models and
property change events. I'd like a book that covers not just the *what*
of Swing, but the *why*.


Any recommendations appreciated: they don't have to be MacOS X- or
Eclipse-focused, but as that's my primary development platform, that
would be best :-). Thanks.
