I gave it a try, but the current CVS SwingWT didn't compile for me,
eg:
 [javac] /tmp/swingwt/SwingWT/swingwt/awt/MenuItem.java:28: cannot resolve symbol
 [javac] symbol : class MenuShortcut
 [javac] location: class swingwt.awt.MenuItem
 [javac] protected MenuShortcut shortcut = null;
 [javac] ^
I did look at your script. One thing is that you will want to use
`-fjni' when compiling the SWT code. This option tells gcj that
native methods are implemented using JNI; in this case gcj will emit
stub implementations that know how to call the runtime to get JNI
info. Without this, gcj will assume CNI and will generate symbolic
references -- so this could be a cause of the problem you are seeing.
If that doesn't help, let us know. Send the actual error output (or
some big-enough clip from it) so it is easier to investigate more.
SwingWT is a cool project BTW.
