Answer Posted / mukesh jha
A heavyweight component relies on native code for its visual
representation so it is drawn by the underlying operating
system. Heavyweight components are those defined in the
java.awt package
A lightweight component does not rely on native code - it is
implemented entirely in Java. This means that a lightweight
componet is entirely portable.
One consequence of the difference between heavyweight and
lightweight components is that mixing them in the same
application can cause trouble because they are drawn in
different ways. You should avoid mixing them.
