For the past several months I've been toying around with a project called JavaBuilders. It is a library that allows you to define layout, binding, and validation in a YAML file to produce Swing (and as of today SWT) frames, panels, etc. It uses MigLayout, which I love. The binding has to date been ok, but not great. The reason is because for binding to work in Swing your JavaBeans need to be real JavaBeans. That means property support. Adding property support isn't a painful process but it is tedious. The bigger problem is if you are using a library or a system where the domain objects already exist and you can't modify them then you can't get true Swing binding.
