[Bluej-discuss] Teaching Swing?

Not strictly BlueJ question, but does anyone know any decent  
resources for teaching basic UI construction with Swing?  Google  
produces many examples, but mostly they are over-complicated for  
beginners, or rely on specific IDEs or are subtly out of date (using  
"show()" where they should use "setVisible(true)" and so on.

Preferably compatible with BlueJ - either exploiting BlueJ's  
interactive object construction or at least not getting in the way of  
it (for example, by designing the whole UI in one "main" method).

Thanks

Gordon
