Hi Jan,
NetBeans has a GUI builder and works very well on Mac OS X.
You can create your own JavaBeans and add them as components to the toolbar
in the GUI editor. Once they have been added, they integrate into the IDE
as seamlessly as the AWT and Swing JavaBeans do that come with the JDK.
All you have to do, is to create a BeanInfo class for your bean and configure
it properly (in most cases you have to either specify that your bean is not
a container, or you have to indicate which child of the bean acts as a container).
Make sure, that your bean and your bean info is compiled, then use the pop
up menu, to add it to the toolbar.
