SwingSet2 demonstrates some of the abilities of the Swing User Interface

Toolkit by displaying many of the components in a single showcase application.

Use it to try out different components and features provided by Swing.

==================================

TO RUN SWINGSET2 AS AN APPLICATION

==================================

java -jar SwingSet2.jar

=========================

TO MODIFY/BUILD SWINGSET2

=========================

The full source for the SwingSet2 demo can be found in the "src"

subdirectory. If you wish to play with the source code and try

out your changes, you can compile and run in this "src" directory:

javac *.java

java SwingSet2

You may notice a difference when running SwingSet from your compiled source

(versus running from the packaged JAR file), in that it won't show the

splash screen. This is expected, as the splash screen is shown using the

java.awt.SplashScreen support, which allows specifying a splash screen

image as an attribute in the JAR's manifest file. If you'd like to see the

splash screen with your own compiled version, you can package your classes

into a JAR and specify the splash screen (as outlined in the java.awt.SplashScreen

documentation) or you can specify the splash screen image on the command line:

java -splash:resources/images/splash.png SwingSet2

Note: These instructions assume that this installation's versions of the java

and javac commands are in your path. If they aren't, then you should

either specify the complete path to the commands or update your PATH environment

variable as described in the installation instructions for the

Java(TM) SE Development Kit.
