java gui builder

[randumb]

i want a java gui builder for swing (too lazy to write swing code myself), any recommendations?

None that I've tried are really very good. Seriously man, nothing beats coding it yourself. Once you begin to understand Swing methodology and its structure, it's a breeze. I can crank out interfaces much quicker (and much more maintainable and elegant, I might add) than any code generator could.

O'Reilly's Swing book is a great resource. I highly recommend it.

the free version of the jigloo eclipse plug in seems good to me

(I'm basically an entry-level java programmer, with experience in other languages)

I really liked the GUI builder in Netbeans IDE. The gridbag layout editor let me do everything.
