XWindows version of Java?

I notice the cygwin version of emacs runs in XWindows and is one of the few
XWindows programs I run frequently on windows.
I assume (I have not tried it yet) I can run the cygwin version of emacs on
my home windows machine from a remote machine with the xhost and "ssh -X"
commands. Is this correct?
Sun's javaw runs native windows, not xwindows. Is there a way I can run GUI
java programs on windows using xwindows so they are compatible with xhost
and "ssh -X"?
I've been reading about gcj and that might work but it looks like I'd have
to recompile everything myself. I want to run eclipse on windows from a
remote machine and I see in fedora core 4 they have recompiled eclipse with
gcj. But I was hoping I would not have to recompile eclipse from the source.
Does cygwin have a javax program that runs GUI java programs under xwindows?
Thanks,
Siegfried
