Creating Windows with Trees in netbeans

I want to create an application with a navigation pane similar to Netbeans IDE (such as the project/files/server and Palette and Properties windows).

Which controls do I need to implement such?

Thanks

Google says you should try:
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/tree.html
for the tree,

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/tabbedpane.html
for the tabbed pane (project/files/server),

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/splitpane.html
for the split pane.

Thank you for the reply,

But what I meant is how to create a layout and behavior of the GUI such as the screenshot (netbeans IDE) on my first post.

Thanks again

you want to build an IDE and you don't know what the parts are or how they work?
go through the links provided and learn for yourself what they do.

Or, go look at the Netbeans source: http://netbeans.org/community/sources/
and find the parts that describe the UI elements you are interested in. Read that and perhaps you might learn how the UI is implemented.
