Moreover the code in this example isn't very good Java code. It uses deprecated features and is certainly not well-written. The wording of the given explanation is also not clear and for some reason the text "File:C:\Users\Travor\Pictures\GameSample.png|thumb|class MoveObj run in Windows NT 6.2" has been inserted below it.--[[User:Furquanahmad|Furquanahmad]] ([[User talk:Furquanahmad|talk]]) 17:02, 13 May 2016 (UTC)

* Hi [[User:Furquanahmad|Furquanahmad]] I agree its not needed and adds nothing so I have removed it. [[User:KylieTastic|KylieTastic]] ([[User talk:KylieTastic|talk]]) 15:02, 14 May 2016 (UTC)

== History ==

I added people who were on the Swing team to the history, along with sources. However, one source was not accepted.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Fowler |first1=Amy |title=Circa 1996 |url=https://amyfowlersblog.wordpress.com/2011/07/28/circa-1996/ |website=Aim's Blog}}</ref> I am not sure if there is another way of finding the information.

== JavaFX successor POV issue ==

There are currently three mentions in the article text to JavaFX as Swing's 'successor', which seems strange to me, as they have different goals. Also, as time has shown, Swing is still in the base JDK/JRE, while JavaFX was jettisoned into an independent library.

The successor claims seem to be uncited, and [https://xtools.wmcloud.org/blame/en.wikipedia.org/Swing_%28Java%29/?q=successor blame suggests] the mentions were introduced arbitrarily by proponents of JavaFX. I propose removing them. [[User:Chabala|Chabala]] ([[User talk:Chabala|talk]]) 05:36, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
