Wait, Swing is deprecated? That's news to me. I just rewrote a small GUI app in Java with Swing.
Any good resources for getting started with JavaFX? Looks like it can't use native controls...
- pbh101 10y agoNo, it isn't.
- sdegutis 10y agoI think it's that Swing isn't deprecated per se, more that it's unofficially deprecated by the fact that JavaFX is actively being worked on and pushed onto potential Swing users, while Swing just sort of stagnates.
- djsumdog 10y agoI thought someone told SWT was dead too, but I checked the project page and they're still going. Last stable was a year ago, but latest dev release came out this month.
