Wow, I just found this nice Flash demo. It shows how to create Java applications for Gnome using java-gnome, Eclipse and Glade2.

It’s really amazing to see how fast and easy one can build GTK Java apps. You simply create a Java project in Eclipse and add two jars to your classpath. Then you create the GUI visually in Glade and save it into the Eclipse project. It’s XML that contains your GUI and can be modified without editing any line of Java code.

Nice set of tools.
