Excerpt from the Shell's Javadoc:
"Note: The styles supported by this class (Shell) must be treated as
HINTs, since the window manager for the desktop on which the instance is
visible has ultimate control over the appearance and behavior of
decorations and modality. For example, some window managers only support
resizable windows and will always assume the RESIZE style, even if it is
not set. [...]"
And I don't think you can do something about it...

Actually, the problem is not that GTK <i>doesn't</i> support
non-resizable windows. It's that SWT on GTK doesn't support
non-resizable windows. Look around through some of the native apps in
GTK. You look long enough, you'll find a non-resizable window (I've
found several). The only thing I can think of to do about it is to
edit the native code handling the window creation on GTK and submit a
patch.<br>
