Java Forum / General / October 2007How can i get javax.swing
Hello, i'm new to java programming and i'm need some tips. First of all i had downloaded and installed the jdk1.6.0_03 and installed also JCreator Pro, but i need to user the javax.swing library.... where can i download that library? is the jdk1.6.0_03 the correct stuff to create swing applications or should i get the J2SE 1.4.2_13? Thnx in advance! :) > Hello, i'm new to java programming and i'm need some tips.

I know it a lame error but since I'm a total newb on java, some things are not so obvious to me :) > Much thnx for the answer, actually i was getting some compile error > because i was doing an "import java.swing", not "import javax.swing". > I know it a lame error but since I'm a total newb on java, some things > are not so obvious to me :) Acid, Yeah, we all had to start somewhere; no worries! You should check out docjar.com; it's a great resource even for those of us who've done Java programming for years. SignatureSteve Sobol, Victorville, CA PGP:0xE3AE35ED www.SteveSobol.com Wahoo!

Gosh, don't download 1.4, it's in its End-of-Life phase. Java 6 is the current version; don't waste your time with an obsolescent version. Have you read the verbiage on the Java web site about what the JDK is versus what the JRE is?

Java 6 is the >current version; don't waste your time with an obsolescent version. Further to that, JDK 1.4 can develop apps suitable for Java with a minimum version of 1.1 -> 1.4. JDK 1.6 can develop apps suitable for Java with a minimum version of 1.1 -> 1.6. If you want to use generics or beyond, use the latest JDK (and if you don't - no drama).

A good idea will tell you that "import java.swing" isn't found before you compile. And it will add the correct import for you, and remove ones that you aren't using. Dump that lame JCreator and get NetBeans. >> Much thnx for the answer, actually i was getting some compile error >> because i was doing an "import java.swing", not "import javax.swing". >> I know it a lame error but since I'm a total newb on java, some things >> are not so obvious to me :) > >This is surprising. A good idea.. IDE? A good IDE is perhaps a good idea, but they are not the same thing! >.. will tell you that "import java.swing" >isn't found before you compile.

As I see it, only 2 things are really needed to fix the problem. - Understanding the compiler error, and (possibly) - Access to the JavaDocs. [ Though I would expect a good IDE to hook the JavaDocs 'directly into' the debug messages/code. ] SignatureAndrew Thompson http://www.athompson.info/andrew/ >> This is surprising.
