Answer / narmada
Swing is a light weight component coz they dont have native resource of their own. It is based on MVC(Modal -View Controller)i.e its look and feel is independent of the hardware and OS.
AWT is a heavy weight component coz it is associated with its own resources. Since JVM helps in translating AWT calls to the appropriate OS , it is platform dependent.
