Frame : A resizable, movable window with title bar and

Panel : A region internal to a Frame or another Panel. Used
for grouping components together. Not bounded by a visible
border. You can change background colour of a panel to
delimit it though. Lives inside some enclosing Container.
It is Derived From Container. Default layout is FlowLayout.

What is the difference between panel and frame ?..

Answer / rajesh dangi

A Frame is an independent object which can exist on its
own. It can contain one or more Panel object within it.
Whereas a Panel can not exist on its own. It need a parent
object like Frame/Window to be displayed/existance.

Most of the characteristics are similar in them since their
super parent is Component & Container classes. The major
difference is that Frame can exist on its own but Panel can
not.

What is the difference between panel and frame ?..

Answer / vishal

A Frame is the outer Cover empty inside, used to display
images, to cover laminated things, or to cover anything
according to the size and shape of the object inside....e.g:
A photo frame, A steel frame covering the Notice Board
hanging on a wall..etc.

Whereas the Panel is the Cover and it may be use to cover
the entire object, It is not empty inside...we can't see any
image from a panel when it is placed upon the particular
object....can be in round, rectangular, triangular or in any
shape matching to the object to cover it properly.
