"Good News, Bad News":
The good news is that with current mainline
GCJ, I do not get any problems while trying
to compile the application.
The bad news is that "tray.jar" uses
"sun.awt.EmbeddedFrame", which is an
*internal* Sun class (that even Sun doesn't
encourage anyone to use) that will very
likely never be in libgcj.
If possible, you should ask the provider
of this JAR to use standard JRE classes.
Thanks,
Ranjit.
