Developing a GUI -> Advice needed.

843807Feb 13 2003 — edited Feb 14 2003

I need to write a GUI for a Java application. I am currently using Forte for Java, which I like. I am assuming that if I buy JBuilder that it will be able to build a GUI fairly quickly. I don't know what Forte for Java offers as far as Rapid GUI development, as basically I have just started using the product.

Basically my question is:
Should I develop the GUI manually, or use a GUI builder?

If I use JBuilder, I am afraid that I will basically be locked into using a particular vendor.

Any advice is appreciated.
