Java Foundation Classes. The building blocks for creating desktop applications that run on the Internet and on intranets. They allow developers to design applications that mirror the OS on which they will run, including Windows, Sun Solaris, and Macintosh. The JFC is made up of a set of foundation services and components for graphical user interfaces. Users also can create a customized interface for an application and change the look of an application on the fly.
Go beyond the AWT to enable you to design GUIs that either reflect the operating system that you're programming for or to create your own platform-independent interface. To the top
Java Foundation Classes: a group of features to help build graphical user interfaces, including the Swing Components, Java 2D, etc.
Java Foundation Classes -- classes for building graphical user interfaces in Java. The JFC consists of Swing, Java 2D, Accessibility, Drag & Drop, and Application Services
(JavaTM Foundation Classes) (n.) A product that includes the Swing classes, pluggable look and feel designs, and the Java Accessibility API (all implemented without native code and compatible with JDK 1.1). For the Java 2 platform, the JFC also include the Java 2D API, drag and drop, and other enhancements. See also Abstract Window Tookit (AWT).
Java Foundation Classes. An extension that adds graphical user interface class libraries to the Abstract Windowing Toolkit (AWT).
See Java Foundation Classes.
The Java Foundation Classes (JFC) are a graphical framework for building portable Java-based graphical user interfaces (GUIs). JFC consists of the Abstract Windowing Toolkit (AWT), Swing and Java2D. Together, they provide a consistent user interface for Java programs, regardless whether the underlying user interface system is Windows, Mac OS X or Linux.
(Java Foundation Classes) A part of the Java 2 platform that includes the Swing classes, pluggable look and feel designs, and the Java Accessibility API. The JFC also includes the Java 2D API, drag and drop, and other enhancements.
Java Foundation Classes. Set of Java class libraries, included with J2SE, that support the building of rich Graphical User Interface applications. The JFC includes AWT (Abstract Window Toolkit), Drag and Drop APIs, Java 2D, Swing, Accessibility APIs, and Internationalization support.
JFC (Java Foundation Classes) software extends the original AWT by adding a comprehensive set of GUI components (class libraries) including Swing.
