Java Versus gtk

["John J. Boyer" <director chpi org>]

Hello,

I'm considering a project which will run on multiple platforms. To begin 
with, it should run on both Windows and Linux. Now I know about the 
development package from Dropline and mingw. Since Java will also run on 
multiple platforms, what are the advantages and disadvantages of using 
Java versus gtk+?

Thanks,
