Hi
I'm a beginer to develop application using Java.
But I have some problem using Java.
The dialogs and menu bar and so on is not similar with Windows XP/VISTA.
What i say is that the application which is made by Java differs from Windows Application.
I wanna solve this problem.
Is this available?
Help me
First of all, welcome to our community. :)
Actually what you have say is not correct. If you the javax.swing package, all the component looks similar to the operating systems themas.
Can you post a code you have workout.
The Java source what i work is made by using AWT.
but the app ui is not so good.
so What i want is changing themes of Apps which is based on AWT not swing.
Is this available?
I don't think it is possible.
Why don't you workout with Swing? Anything you have done using AWT, possible to do in Swing too.
look up ui look and feel and try that you can change the look and feel of your component to look like windows.
You mean is there a way to make looks like Windows of AWT?Quote:

Yep, that's what I say in my first post. ;) Normally AWT used for Linux, UNIX systems. AWT interfaces much similar to those OS UI.
To use the LAF used by the native OS:
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAn dFeelClassName());
Code from Sun's Swing Tutorial, look here for more detail.
Yes, this is Swing only, not AWT. And as a user of both Windows and Linux systems: while AWT bore a passing resemblance to GTK a few years ago, GTK looks very different these days. Also, AWT doesn't have to be used on Unix/Linux, those systems will run Swing applications just fine. (I am a Swing developer, and use Ubuntu 8.04 :D)
Yes, Swing is the solution for Linux. And Unix too. Actually you can use AWT for Linux. Specially in knopix, UI much similar to AWT.
