John Cowell,

If you are used to creating applications in a Windows environment, you will be familiar with the standard Windows components, such as buttons, text boxes and lists. The Abstract Windowing Toolkit (AWT) packages provide a set of classes to allow you to create a GUI interface. These components have events, for example you can click on a button, or change the text in a text box. In this chapter we are going to look at how you create these components and respond to their events.
