UI for JAVA

Eclipse, Netbeans are full-fledged IDEs for Java but they are a bit heavier on the system resources... There are also some lighter IDEs like BlueJ, etc...

for drag & drop u can use netbeans as it has very simple JFrame editor with many new features. Also you can use the initial tutorials provide by sun on how to use NetBeans to develop UI using the gui designer.
go for netbeans bro...i used it from my college life...it's 100% FREE

^^ Just a note. You have given the URL for 6.0, but Netbeans 6.1 is out and of course has better stuff in it.
yeah the bundled combo on sun's site have it
yep! i kno it^^ Just a note. You have given the URL for 6.0, but Netbeans 6.1 is out and of course has better stuff in it.
bt i havnt try it till day...dats why i didnt suggest it
The best way to get the UI you want is going the Hard Way,i.e., writing them down using a text editor and then compiling them. The best IDE for this has got to be BlueJ. There's nothing better than this I bet. Thats how you become a hardcore programmer. Anyways can anyone suggest a good book or source-code site for learning SWT based programming. I've been longing to develop my own Java IDE but at the same time I want the Eye-Candy stuff that comes with SWT just like Eclipse has!!

If you are a beginner and do not know how to use Eclipse or Netbeans then use JCreator. Its very good for Small Applications..
If you have big applications and several different deployments have to be managed together... then nothing better then Netbeans / Eclipse.
