The Java SE 6 release introduced several new capabilities to the Abstract Window Toolkit (AWT). Users are no longer limited to Swing and enhancing the graphical user interface (GUI) components. With Java SE 6, you have new access to things such as desktop applications through what used to be called the JDesktop Integration Components (JDIC), described in a previous tip: Communicating With Native Applications Using JDIC. Although its package changed to just java.awt, the API remains much as described in that tip. You also now have the ability to add applications to the Microsoft Windows taskbar, the Gnome notification area, or KDE's system tray. That is what this tip is all about.
