Swing IS the GUI Framework of choice.
SWT is Windows favored, anti-Java, ant-crossplatform
Windows? Do you want to use Cocoa or Swing? With SWT, on mac, you use
Cocoa! A real open panel for example. With SWT, you use, when they
exist, a native widget for your platform, not the awful Swing one! User
want to use their OS (OS X, Windows, Linux), not the common denominator
of all OS, that is Swing

Hi (2),
If you don't know Eclipse (http://www.eclipse.org), visit their web
site. It's a very nice alternative to XCode. XCode isn't a nice
solution for WO. But, it isn't the subject of this email.
In Java client, Apple uses Swing, the worst java solution for me.
SWT, the UI framework of Eclipse, is a good cross-platform solution.
For example, with Swing, an open panel is the same in all platforms.
But wouldn't you like rather to use the Cocoa open panel in MacOS and
the XP panel in Windows?
I want to tell to Apple that SWT is a better solution for java
client, that Eclipse is better than XCode for WO. It would be nice if
I won't be alone to say that.
