Actually, there are SWIG generated files for Java in the current SVN  
head (much like you describe).

I had to do some renaming though -- the filenames are so huge that  
they can't be archived by tar (i.e., for generating snapshots and  
releases). I haven't updated the Makefile to do this automatically yet.

Actually, you can automate this by adding to openbabel-java.i

If you can get me a full list, I'll definitely hack the SWIG  
interface file to generate these.
