What is the difference between AWT & Swing?

Answer Posted / naveen

The difference is
------>AWT is internally depends on C language ..so the look
and feel is different for different operating systems.
for example if we create a component like submit box or a
text box in AWT the look will be one for windows ans
different for unix operating system
but swings is purely plat form independent so that the
component will have the same look and feel in any operating
system......
