[webkit-dev] How to use webkit ?

[David Kilzer]

Hi Nemix,

In order to use WebKit with Java, you will have to provide a "JNI" (Java Native Interface) layer that lets Java "talk" to WebKit.  You'll also have to provide a way for WebKit to "draw" within a Java application.  (This is also a gross oversimplification of what may be required.)

Fortunately Sun may have already done most of the work for you, although I'm not sure JWebPane is ready yet:
