java design question

[sweetsupra]

Hey guys,

I am working a banking project for school. I have set up all the individual screens, but I am stuck with the next phase of the project. I need to have connectivity with each of the screens. Everyone suggests that I should use CardLayout that would invoke each of the screens based on the event that is triggered. What do you suggest? My other questions, is there any good sites where i can go that I can download alot of icons(for example: the icons that are used on windows explorer)?

Thanks in advance for the help,

Manoj

...don't use VJ++ - that's my suggestion. Start with the JDK - you'll learn a lot faster.

I am using VJ++ and I feel I am learning Java pretty quick. I think it is just a preference thing. If you are used to using the Microsoft development environment, VJ++ will be natural to you.

The problem with VJ is that it starts you on programming using WFC, and using MS extensions, which you shouldn't. It's like VC and MFC - learn to program Windows properly first, then move on to the cheat method.

You'll learn and understand Java faster from using the JDK and its command-line tools.

I am using Visual J++ to write console apps right now. So how is it forcing me to use WFC and MS extensions?
