Java GUI Frameworks - which are out there? [closed]

Answer 1

i recommend against using a layout tool; the code is very hard to read and maintain.

also, if you need database access to objects, then netbeans will leave entity managers open and create major headaches and bugs later if your app needs to use more than one thread.

Answer 2

There are also GUI frameworks that are not written in Java which might serve your purposes. For example, GTK+ is written in C but there are language bindings to Java. Check out java-gnome for example.

I don't know how good it is, but a quick Google search also turned up Java bindings for Qt so maybe that's also worth looking into.
