I must add that refreshing is never a problem in java code for iLiad platform. In comparison to GTK+, java code works well just as you program on PC. It makes developing a iLiad java app more easy. Besides, based on my experience, on iLiad, java seems to provide better memory management than C. For an experienced C programmer, it's not a problem. For a medicore C programmer, like me, it's hard to implement perfect memory management.
In addition to limited java class on iLiad, there is another drawback for java on iLiad, that is, you can't hide toolbar and pagebar. In contrast, it's easy to do it with GTK+.
