java swt design patterns

Question

What are some good design patterns for creating a form in java?

I have an app that has 6 tabs with a different form in each. How does the typical java programmer go about making these items accessible?

For example as a wpf programmer I might databind all these controls to underlying objects.

What do java programmers like to do?

If you are using Eclipse, you can try EMF, an amazing framework helps you to design your model, generate Java code, and provides a pretty cool model editor in minutes.

EMF provides data binding between the UI widget and the model, you can read the generated code to see how it works.
