The Java language provides support for creating a popup notification with icon ad message. This can be done using many libraries in Java. Here I am going to demonstrate a simple way using AWT SystemTray . SystemTray class in Java: The SystemTray class represents the system tray for a desktop.

IDE (Integrated development environment) IDE is any application that helps you to Write code in them Compile the application Debug the application Refactoring the code Building your application Example : Eclipse, IntelliJ IDEA, Netbeans, Visual Studio, etc. API (Application Programming Interface) APIs are actually interface to any library. It actually explains about the various methods/functions available in the library and how we can make use of those through the code. Example :  JUnit API Framework  A framework is a kit or generic structure that provides a skeleton architecture with which specific software can be implemented. It also a library (or a collection of libraries that work together) that provides a specific coding structure & pattern (thus the word, framework). Example :  Swing Framework contains a set of classes that provides more powerful and flexible GUI components. Spring Framework . SDK (Software Development Kit) SDK contains a complete
