Great Java Desktop Apps - can it be done?

Abstract

Have you struggled trying to write a top notch rich client application in Java?
If you have written a great desktop Java application or would like to write one this BOF is for you.

Participants will share experiences and challenges using different Java application frameworks: SWING, SWT, Eclipse RCP and Trolltech's Qt Jambi.

Topics we'd like to touch on are:

  • what are the best techniques to use?
  • what are the gotchas and possible pitfalls?
  • what features do users love?
  • how important is native look and feel?

We hope for a challenging and inspiring discussion. The session will be hosted by Gunnar Sletta and Eivind Throndsen from Trolltech, the company behind the newly released Qt Jambi rich client Java framework.
