I'm working with some legacy code that was designed poorly. Instead of using mulitple JPanels and switching between them on a single JFrame, every "screen" is implemented using its own JFrame. Then each frame is hidden/shown when needed. Is there enough benefit in using JPanels over JFrames to go back and rewrite this code?
I am by no means am expert in development, however, my opinion is that if the interface is understandable and funcional and is somewhat user friendly, I see no need to go back and redo the code. The only reason I see in changing, is if you see a change in the software in the near future that would require a JTabbedPane. Then, you should probably get starting on the integration now. Just my two cents

I personally would prefer having least number of components. Just one frame and rest of them panels/panes whatever. Again, just my 2 paisas
I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to
run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
