GUI COMPONENTS
In Java applications, the components that comprise a GUI
(Graphical User Interface) are stored in containers called
forms. The Java language provides a set of user interface
components from which GUI forms can be built.
Components are typically added to a form using the window
and arranged in the GUI Builder workspace.
Java GUIs are forms comprised of top-level containers within
which are grouped sub-containers as well as the various
components used to provide the desired information and
control functionality.
