Hey guys,

I am planning to be able to extract component data and attributes of
everything that Swing manages to be able to replicate them in HTML. (For
example a swing JFrame with a JButton would be examined and its components
i.e, JButton be drawn as a Button on an HTML page and this page can be
communicated to the client.)

This is purely a research/college project and I am looking for a "Yes you
can, try this ....this " or "No its too complicated and cannot be done"
kind of an answer.

The functionality I want to achieve is something similar to AjaxSwing which
is a proprietary solution. I would really appreciate to receive some
directions with this regards. Please note I am willing get down and dirty
with Open JDK and Swing to achieve this and will love to help around in
contributions for Swing.

Thank you.
