Actually, an easier route is to go to Chapter 8 of the External
Development Guide and read up on Java-IDL integration. There is an
example of a program which uses Java for the GUI and IDL for the
processing underneath. The only gotcha is that the main program needs
to be written in IDL and Java is called from IDL.

Use Callable IDL only if you really need to call IDL from Java. Keep in
mind that this is a much more difficult route since there is no direct
way to use callable IDL in Java. You'd need handle the callable IDL in
C and then create JNI mappings from Java to the C library just created.
Neither Callable IDL or JNI are that easy to work with if you've never
touched them before.
