[Java-gnome-developer] java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Lorg.gnu.glib.Handle32Bits;

[Ka-Hing C. <ka...@gm...>]

Using libgtk-java 2.5.3 or cvs HEAD, the above exception is thrown
whenever I call the constructor of any org.gnu.gtk.* class. Tried with
IBM's powerpc 1.4.2 runtime as well as gcj (3.4, both by compiling to
native code or using gij).

For example, this is my main:

Gtk.init(args);
org.gnu.gtk.Window win = new org.gnu.gtk.Window(WindowType.TOPLEVEL);
win.showAll();
Gtk.main();

Here's the trace:
