Swing is a library of GUI controls which improves upon
the Abstract Window Toolkit.
AWT uses operating system calls to draw components;
Swing draws components using its own methods. This gives
developers much greater flexibility in designing the look
and feel of their applications, while at the same time
ensuring that the applications maintain the same look and
feel across different platforms.
Swing provides significantly enhanced functionality,
such as actions, tables, trees, images buttons, tabs,
toolbars, and sliders.
swing is actuallly part of a larger family of java product
know as java foundation classes(JFC) which have many
features.swaing is used to create a feature rich user
interface with icon,images,tooltips and customized
controls.It is a part of the GUI components.
