A fine tutorial

The best way to learn about a new tool (which is what the JFC are) is to watch someone work with it. Though it's not a comprehensive reference, this book does explain how to perform lots of popular JFC tasks. There are some cool examples involving network resources and displaying raster graphics.Code is presented in an example-and-commentary format, so you can see what he's doing overall before he explains it piece-by-piece.
