Mastering Swing with JGoodies
The last days i was mostly in source-code and javadoc reading mode. To be honest, in the first hours of my journey, i thought that i would never really understand that framework, but slowly i am getting the whole picture and thats why i want to talk about it. I have dealt with a lot of frameworks so far, mostly in the J2EE area. Most of them require a day or two and then you can do most the things the framework has to offer. But i want to tell you a different story, a story within the most complex API in javaland: Swing. I know many J2EE developers are thinking that EJB is the toughest API to work with, but sorry, i am doing constantly both areas and Swing is IMO harder to apply correctly...
