I made the mistake before of using the same rules for server application writing to Client or Editor type apps. Now in MFC you may be able to get away with this. But in Swing No. I got really good "(!look and) feel" when I changed to using "Interfaces, Listeners, Events" literally all over the place. The only thing the "action" did was paint the frame and register listeners maybe send an event. And this worked really well. When I was trying to process then paint sequentially it was a dog. This does make it harder to debug but then again that comes down allot repitition. As far as look goes Swing does not look as well as the native stuff and the help of a good graphic designer is needed. Thats my take on using java for Editor type apps. I would not rule java out but you have to have done a few swing apps before it is comparable. Its a matter of getting used to the threading I believe. But I am now expert in MVC stuff. The stability was great using listeners cause paint never hung. It may not of got data but at least it did not hang as happened before.
