AT the current time, there is no way to do what you request in Java. Keeping on application &quot;always-on-top&quot; is a function of the application's interaction with the desktop (root window). The JDK has very poor support for this kind of interaction. I'm sorry.<br />

How could I use the &quot;C&quot; language with Java using JNI?<br />

How could I use the "C" language with Java using JNI?

The JNI is fairly straight forward, but how to do what you request is dependent upon the platform on which you are deploying. Please be specific.<br />

Sorry again. It's been too many years since I've looked at OS/2 and NT is not my thing. I'm sure someone in one of those forums can give you the appropriate native code and then you can wrap it up in JNI.<br />

  I have an smalltalk application that takes up the entire screen and a java toolbar application.

  I want the java toolbar application or java application to stay a float on top of the smalltalk application
without taking focus from the smalltalk application.

  How do I do this?

Java application a float on top of an application written in another language

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.
