If you want to see a swing example of an SWT program using web start you
can visit the following link. You will need java and of course webstart
installed on your Windows (not linux) computer for the link to work.
There will also be a prompt asking if you trust my code to run on your
computer. I found a great resource at http://www.vamphq.com/jwsfaqp.html

http://www.browsexml.com/Calculator/calc.jnlp

Here is the source for the jnlp; maybe it will help get you started:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<jnlp

codebase="http://www.browsexml.com/Calculator"
