Okay so for widgets I have a base class problem. Like I would want a class
that does things since there could be some shared widget logic but I also
want stuff like LcdList
which manages being a list, there could also be a
Canvas
too. But I suppose for Swing there will need to be some kind of
duplication. It would be much easier though if I could use default methods
in interfaces. But this VM basically is a Java 7 VM. Default interfaces
would be very useful, but I believe I can change the Swing code around. For
widgets it really just needs some methods. Right now for swing all I really
need is a getJComponent()
interface because that is all that is used for
the most part.

Unless I have like an interface adapter of sorts, basically I have just a plain widget, but I can have specialized sub-classes and it would act like a derived widget of sorts. There could still be some issues with that. So right now I kind of wish Java had multiple classes, although that would complicate things for the most part. Will need to think on this befor I continue so that way the widget code is not a giant mess.
