Swing/AWT

Fortunately, I've found lots of books and online material that teach you Java swing/awt programming for desktop environments.

Unfortunately, very few (approximately none) discuss structuring your application code.

I've seen "Learning Java" over discuss the 'Adapter' design pattern when it comes to separating UI actions from application functionality. But still, I'm looking for patterns that will make code scale, techniques that will handle complex user interfaces using simple class relations without cross-referencing different variables, classes and elements along the code.

Till I meet such a tutorial or reference, I think I'll be treating Swing the MFC way.
Lucky me , I've done MFC ;)
