Best In-depth GUI books
843807Oct 26 2009 — edited Oct 26 2009I want to learn about the Java standard GUI APIs, but I don't want to learn only how to do it, I want to learn how it does it. I need a book that tells me exactly WHY I should be doing things this or that way.
I've found one called Java AWT Reference, which looked really cool, but as I went through the preface:
"... the Java 1.1 has just been released ..." and I stopped reading.
I know the Java API has changed a real lot since it was released, so I wanted a more recent book, if possible.
