Syed,
I cannot help you with NetBeans, but Swing is easy to install. There are a
series of jar files provided with Swing. The one named "swingall.jar"
contains everything. So all you need to do is to unzip or untar the Swing
download into some suitable directory; e.g., "usr/local". Then add the
complete pathname of the Swing jar file to your class path; e.g.,
CLASSPATH=/iusr/local/swing-1.0.2/swingall.jar
export CLASSPATH
I use the Korn shell so I am not sure if the "export" is the right thing to do
for the bash shell.
Also, you should dowloand Swing 1.0.3 or Swing 1.1. Swing 1.0.3 has some bug
fixes over Swing 1.0.2. Swing 1.1 is the next version of Swing which will be
compatible with the Swing in JDK 1.2. This is still beta while Swing 1.0.3 is
supposedly production.
