[Opensource] Swing Client

[David Herron]

A couple days ago I started reading up on STRUTS (so that I could start 
actually using Expresso for something) and found this article in the 
Tutorials section of the Struts web site 
(http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/resources/tutorials.html):

	Struts meets Swing (1)
	http://javaboutique.internet.com/tutorials/Swing/

The article goes through converting a STRUTS web-application so that it 
also can be used from a Swing client.

The overall mechanism is for the Swing client to use the HTTP protocol 
(using the URL and URLConnection classes) to connect with the web 
application, and to set a "user-agent" property which the 
web-application recognizes ... when the SWING user-agent type is 
present, the information is returned as XML rather than HTML, letting 
the Swing user agent easily grope through the data for whatever it 
wishes to display on the screen.
