Greetings! I was working on my current Java program today in Eclipse and got confused with what I had made (I know!) with all of the differences between console and GUI. So, I found a way to have an instance of a console box with GUI, which is exactly what I need. Here is the link : LINK. I have it working, except for one exception. There is a thing that the author of that has written: to change his file of IoEscape to a Try/Catch. I tinkered around, but couldn't figure out how to do that. You will see once you read the article. Please help me get this to work! Thank you in advance!

I can tell you the hard way to build a Java app with a User Interface, through writing codes

 

The easy way I use to build Java app with a UI, is using Netbeans IDE the Java SE edition

 

It's very simple, just follow the steps in the pictures:

 

Step 1: Launch Netbeans IDE

 

Step 2: File > New Project

 

Step 3: Categories:Java > Projects:Java Desktop Application

 

Step 4: Design your interface using drag-and-drop, and link them using the code

 

Note: the last snapshot is from a project I've finished, in the picture you can see JTable (Java Table UI component)

Okay; I was refraining from using Netbeans for now, but I shall get it. Thanks for the help!
