Recommended Books on RCP/Swing

Hi,

are there any recommended books on RPC/Swing-Development?

Anything like Rod Johnson's J2EE-Books?
I'll have to start a new Standalone-App, but I'm afraid, that I'm kind of a server-side-geek, so I'd like to learn some best-practice-stuff about client-side-java-development.

Thanks,
SotA

For Swing related info "Swing - Second Edition" Robinson & Vorobiev published by Manning is great it covers almost all of the framework and has some very useful examples. There is also a reasonable Swing book from O'Reilly but it's not as complete as Robinson & Vorobiev. In terms of Swing RCP books I'm not aware of any, but I'm sure there are some that cover Eclipse/JFace/SWT which might be moderately helpful.

I also suggest you get the Spring Rich Client source, have a look around and try out the Pet Clinic sample app. One of the goals of Rich Client is to insulate you somewhat from the vagaries of Swing programming.
