It depends perhaps. From what Chouser has shown us, it can be really easy to build GUIs with Qt Jambi. Maybe not as easy as with Glade and LibGlade, in that you have to hook the signals to the slots manually it seems (correct me please if I'm wrong). But still, very attractive.
There is of course Java-Gnome <http://java-gnome.sourceforge.net/> too. Nice architecture, and you can do all those nice things with LibGlade that I mentioned before. But it's not available (yet?) for Windows unfortunately (not that I actually care that much, but you know that OS is still widespread.) All in all, I personally would like to see Swing make the jump and start offering such possibilities as well. Actually, it's more like NetBeans and its Swing Designer that should come up with this kind of functionality, I guess. Just my two cents.
