We're developing a GUI for our animal management system using Swing.
There are a few problems, but we found for them solutions or
workarounds.
Our main development System is a HP-UX 10.20 Workstation, but our
preferred client System is Linux (currently SuSE 5.3 with JDK 1.1.6v2).
If it runs well under HP-UX, it also runs without problums under Linux.
At home I use also Linux for the development and transfer only the
compiled classes to the HP-machine. No probs.
In my opinion, Java using Swing (we use 1.0.3) under Linux and HP-UX is
ready for 'real' applications and is stable enough.
