JGlade is a reimplementation of libglade in pure Java, enabling Glade UI designs to be ported to platform independent toolkits, such as SWT and Eclipse. Toolkits are managed through an Abstract factory, and pluggable modules supporting other toolkits can be implemented. The Glade UI designer produces an XML file describing the interface in GTK+ terms. This file is parsed by JGlade and a new SWT interface is constructed, making the necessary conversion from GTK+ to SWT or another toolkit.
