I'm aware there is substantial anti-Java bias here, but the Standard Widget Toolkit (SWT) uses native widgets on all platforms. I've never had occasion to use it, but that would seem to be an attractive option for a cross-platform GUI.
<notreally disclaimer="possibly a year and a half outdated information"> No, not really. It should really be called the Standard Windows Toolkit so that it reflects the fact that it's far from industrial quality on any other platform (except possibly Mac). Unless things have changed, it should be easy to see what I mean if you create a simple benchmark of GUI operations speed. Furthermore, I'm not sure SWT exist for platforms other than Win32, Mac and Linux. </notreally> t.n.a.
