Is it possible to create UIs for standalone Max apps in [mxj] using the javax.swing API?

I've had a bit of a look at using the [mxj] object and i've found a few codes for [mxj] which contain Swing elements on the old forum, so i'm assuming it is possible, but i've not found any full Max apps with a Swing UI yet.

In a perfect world i'd like to create a Jframe, with menus and other Swing objects, which would also incorporate [jsui]s and standard Max objects...all of which would then neatly interface with my main patch. 

I'm sure there was some documentation for implementing Java in Max on the website, although i've only been able to find documentation for implementing Javascript now, (which i'm sure wasn't there before), i could of course just be imagining things though!

Anyway, has anyone done this before? I'm assuming the answer is yes from the codes i've seen on the old forum...but were there problems with it because it doesn't seem to be as common an approach as i'd have thought it would be?

I'm relatively competent with Java but if anyone can provide me with any pointers on how and where to get started with implementing it in terms of [mxj], and especially implementing javax.swing, i'd appreciate it.

(Not really asking for much am i?)

I've found the Java documentation for [mxj], it's stashed away in the examples folder in Max's application folder.

However, any advice on implementing Swing would still be very much appreciated.
