A library of Java classes used to write programs for GUIs and forms part of the Swing library
Abstract Windows Toolkit, the package containing the components for a graphical user interface
Short for Abstract Window Toolkit The standard Java class library for creating a graphical user interface Hyperwire authors do not need to use this package Developers who use the MDK to create plug-in modules can use the AWT if they choose to
Abstract Windowing Toolkit The java awt package contains components that are simple GUI controls such as checkboxes, labels, radio buttons, and text boxes (As an alternative to AWT controls, JBuilder's dbSwing library provides versions of standard controls that are data-aware components, supporting easy, dynamic updating of the data shown in the controls See: model-view architecture )
(Abstract Window Toolkit) (n ) The class library that provides the standard API for building GUIs for JavaTM programs The AWT includes imaging tools, data transfer classes, GUI components, containers for GUI components, an event system for handling user and system events among parts of the AWT, and layout managers for managing the size and position of GUI components in platform-independent designs (The GUI components in the AWT are implemented as native-platform versions of the components, and they have largely been supplanted by the Swing components ) See also JFC, Swing classes
This is the windowing toolkit provided with Java It is intended to allow portable graphical software to be written in Java - this requires a `highest common denominator' approach, so that only capabilities which can be expected to work on all windowing systems in use are available
refers to: general term, abbreviation Abstract Window Toolkit Classes and routines, used to create a user interface Java provides classes that are system-independent in its package java awt
Abstract Window Toolkit This is a toolkit used to implement windowing functions within the Java language This provides facilities to draw lines, display graphical images ( gif), produce animated scenes, and so forth
