java awt controls

In the Java programming language, AWT (Abstract Window Toolkit) provides a set of controls, also called components, that can be used to create graphical user interfaces for desktop applications. Some of the common AWT controls are:

  1. Button: A push button control that can trigger an action.

  2. Checkbox: A control that allows the user to select one or more options.

  3. Choice: A drop-down list control that allows the user to select one option.

  4. Label: A control that displays a text label.

  5. List: A control that displays a list of items.

  6. TextField: A control that allows the user to enter text.

  7. TextArea: A control that allows the user to enter multiple lines of text.

  8. Scrollbar: A control that allows the user to scroll through content.

  9. Panel: A container that can hold other controls.

  10. Canvas: A control that allows drawing and graphics manipulation.

These controls are implemented using native platform-specific code, which means that the look and feel of the controls may vary depending on the platform. However, you can customize the look and feel of the controls by using the AWT API, which provides methods to change the appearance and behavior of the controls.

It is worth noting that Swing, another Java GUI toolkit, provides a more extensive set of controls than AWT and is often used instead of AWT in modern Java applications.
