Hi all,
I am about to start writing a UI application and am thinking about
writing it in SWT. I have experience with Swing but never used SWT. I
thought it might be good to get to know another technology. I am
writing the application for a windows machine so portability is not a
primary concern of mine. I have heard SWT is a bit windows focussed
which for me is not an issue.
With the improvements with Swing under Java 5 and 6 which technology
does the group think I should use? Is speed much better in SWT when
compared to Swing? Is SWT a steep learning curve? I belive they both
paint on the event thread so bad programming in either would hit UI
performance.
TIA
Richard
