AWT versus Swing

Expand Post »
Hello, I am interested in knowing your opinion in Java GUI development using AWT and Swing. Each have its own pros and cons. I am wondering which one is most preferable by java developer. AWT or Swing or Both? Please state your reason. Thank you.

Re: AWT versus Swing

Isn't most of swing built on top of AWT, so essentially if you use swing you're using both.

Re: AWT versus Swing

Sorry for the mistakes and misunderstanding. What I meant is the GUI components such as the button, menu, label etc.. Which one do you prefer to/usually use when developing any applications/applets?

Use Swing components most of the time
OR
Use AWT components most of the time
OR
Both(Sometimes use AWT components and sometimes use Swing components)
