Has someone made a GUI recently using the widgets available in
java.awt? Would you recommend it?
We are still using AWT...only because upgrading to Swing or SWT has not
made it to the top of the priority list, yet. It works well...as well
as it was designed to, anyway. For what it is worth...I don't have
any outstanding issues with AWT.
If I was writing new code and had no requirement to use AWT, I would
use Swing or SWT. Swing has a much more capable API and both have more
widgets available than AWT. Swing has good support in terms of 3rd party
tools. SWT is attractive, but not as mature - especially in the area of
3rd party widgets.
IMO, you should seriously consider using one of those for new development
for the simple reason that (more widgets == better UI with less effort).
