Hey Clemens!
> Is there already any Swing-Code? Whats about Java2d on AWT?
Don't think so, i looked around CVS, there is code, but it isn't
functional.

Uhuh.
> It would be a big step for gcj if swing would be working, of course I'm sure thats a lot of work.
Sure that's true, but there's still SWT lying around. The problem is
that SWT uses yet another API to do things. (How many API's do we
need???)
I saw on www.eclipse.org that they built SWT on top of awt using
gtk/gtk2 peers (or motif). Thus I was thinking (I am still looking for
something to work on in Classpath) is it legal to build Swing op top
SWT?
Anybody know this??
