I have experience in Swing 8 years, but for some time I’ve been reading that with Java 9 Swing will be totally abandoned by Oracle. Now arose the need for me to develop a Desktop system for a client and came to me some questions.

My doubts are as follows:

  1. JVM will no longer run programs developed in Swing/AWT ?
  2. JDK will only have Javafx development toolkit ?
  3. Javafx really is ideal for Desktop development since the great feeling of it eh RIA?

Anyway, it will be the end of Swing/AWT ?

    Interesting question. But as for the first question, I don’t think that happens, the most I think is going to happen is those warnings that you’re underrated when it comes to developing.

1-Of course not, the JVM depends on what the user has installed, probably when the exit 9 should be able to also execute the 8, so the JVM will not be a problem there will be guaranteed way to execute programs of previous versions.

2-Probably however I believe that there will be external libraries for Swing/AWT, it will be nothing official but should work the same way having no improvement.

3-Javafx surpasses Swing at many points, javafx has a much simpler API in addition to being more customizable with the css but the swing is not far behind but as at this moment javafx is has great improvements does not make sense to continue with the "worst".
