This is way off-topic. I do a lot of swing development and I have a library that I have worked on that uses reflection to allow someone to bind methods to swing events using annotations (or through code without subclassing/implementing listeners, for that matter). The library hasn't been released yet because it is pretty beta and was just a pet project I was working on. If such a library would help you, let me know off-list. Thanks, -- Philip A.
