What are good Java Swing date-chooser components? So far I've only really found these 2:
JCalendar
- this one is pretty good as it uses the underlying look and feel.JXMonthView
in the SwingX project - not so good as it uses its own look and feelBoth of these look a bit clunky when compared with some I've seen on web-pages. For example, it might be nice to see multiple months at the same time. Does anyone know of any other good widgets out there?
Swing provides a rich set of widgets and packages to make sophisticated GUI components for Java applications. Swing is a part of Java Foundation Classes(JFC), which is an API for Java GUI programing that provide GUI.
Step1:- Select Tools->Palette->Swing/AWT Components Step2:- Click 'Add from JAR'in Palette Manager Step3:- Browse to [NETBEANS HOME]\ide\modules\ext and select swingx-0.9.
Swing in Java is a lightweight GUI toolkit which has a wide variety of widgets for building optimized window based applications. It is a part of the JFC( Java Foundation Classes). It is build on top of the AWT API and entirely written in java. It is platform independent unlike AWT and has lightweight components.
Recently I found and use the Microba DatePicker (http://microba.sourceforge.net/) for a personal project involving Swing GUIs, and I actually I really liked the way this control is implemented. Besides, the license is BSD, so you will be able to customize the control and use it for commercial purposes if you need to do so.
