There is a Java accessibility API, and a bridge that enables Orca to work with
accessible Java applications.
If you're running AT-SPI 2 and a recent version of Orca, the bridge you need
is called java-atk-wrapper. It is available from the Gnome project. There are
people on this list who have it working successfully, and who may post more
details.
