Re: SWT & SOA Referrence Materials

Do any of you have some recommendations on good reading material for
learning SWT and SOA?  Also, would anyone recommend SWING over SWT?  I
do not know much about either except that SWT can take advantage of
platform specific functionality
What scenario are you addressing? If it is building a client talking to a server, you should be able to go quite a way with a browser (i.e. a web client). If you need heavy processing in the client, then write a Java application and launch it with Java Web Start.
I would only recommend the SWT-road for experienced programmers as it is a very moving target. Swing is very well documented and is used by many people and has support from a lot of IDE's. Both Netbeans and Eclipse have GUI designers for Swing, and I have been on a team writing a very large Swing client.
If your needs are more suited for a web client, then ask for details - I am currently writing a JavaServerFaces application and may give you a hint or two. 

Best regards,

Thorbjørn
