Thanks very much! I will try find these two books.

Yes I intend to build a swing based UI. I have just started learning ECJ so
correct me if I am wrong. My project is "Evolving lambda-calculus programs
using GP", so I will need GP and customized tree structures to get it to
work. My thoughts right now are:

1. Since ECJ's GUI relies on JFreeChart and iText, and JFreeChart instances
can be added to a ChartPanel, which extends a JPanel (
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7868579/how-to-display-jfreechart-in-java-swing-gui),
thus I can add those charts into swing UI.

2. I am thinking about using libraries like jgraph to present GPTree in my
UI.  I am assuming that I can "hack" GPTree into something presentable by
JGraph, maybe using subclass.
