Hi Friends,
While working on the JAWS scripting of some inaccessible applications, I
found that one application which is developed in JAVA by using AWT framework
is totally inaccessible with JAWS. Currently JAWS can only read the title of
the window and is not reading about any button, text, menu or other
controls. I have also installed Java Access Bridge version 2.0.1 and also
tried to read information by using JAWS and Invisible cursor, but found no
improvement. This is my first interaction with AWT based application and
could not find any help from the internet too.

 Currently JAVA Access Bridge v2.0.1, JRE v1.6.0 and JAWS version 10.0 are
installed on the system.
I have following questions:
1. Is it possible to make JAVA AWT based application accessible to use with
JAWS by using any approach?
2. Can any other screen reader like Windows Eyes or System Access can work
more better with Java based application?
3. Is Java Access Bridge version 2.0.1 is compatible with JRE version 1.6.0?

Thanks in advance,
Saurabh
