When I read the output from the xprop utility regarding my Java program, I see a WM_CLASS line giving "SWT" as the instance name as well as the class name. Can I specify other names for these so that end-users can configure specific X resources (such as font, or background color, etc.) in my program (like they can with X apps like xterm, etc.)???

I think Display.setAppName(String) is what you want (if not then please
follow up here).

Great idea, but after adding this and relaunching, xprop utility still showed "SWT" and "SWT" as the instance and class names...

Other ideas?

import org.eclipse.swt.*;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.*;
 
public class SWTHelloWorld 
{
   public static void main (String[] args) 
  {
      Display.setAppName("SWTHelloWorld");
      Display display = new Display();
      Shell shell = new Shell(display);
      shell.setText("SWT Hello World");
      Label label = new Label(shell, SWT.NONE);
      label.setText("Hello World");
      label.pack();
      shell.pack();
      shell.open();
      while (!shell.isDisposed()) 
      {
         if (!display.readAndDispatch()) display.sleep();
      }
      display.dispose();
   }
}

Now I can develop java applications that work properly with the FVWM Window Manager. Thanks for SWT!

java/swing applications do not work well with the FVWM Window Manager.
