The strong name of the IKVM.AWT.WinForms assembly is baked into the code, s=
o when you do your own build the name doesn't match anymore. You can modify=
 ikvm\openjdk\Configuration.java to use the non-strong named assembly name:

    String default_awt_peer_toolkit =3D "ikvm.awt.NetToolkit, IKVM.AWT.WinF=
orms";

Alternatively, you can set the awt.toolkit system property:

ikvm "-Dawt.toolkit=3Dikvm.awt.NetToolkit, IKVM.AWT.WinForms" -jar test_but=
ton.jar
