Original OSNews Interviews I've been fortunate enough recently to be in contact with Steve Northover. Despite him being very busy with SWT and the forthcoming release of Eclipse, I've managed to grab some of his time to answer some of my questions. To clarify from the outset, the views expressed by Steve are his own and not those of his employer.

Well, I always use "Layout Managers" even in the most simple Dialog. If you care to create your Dialogs with some sane GUI-Designer it's not a problem at all.

I tend to prefer Glade and wxDesigner. (Those are not Java tools, but the concept is propably the same.)
