Some of the Java code I've looked at (not much) looked an awfull lot like C to
me, so it might not be so horribly difficult (not that I would know) but I've
never in my life seen anything I liked done in Java.  Programs like Jester are
amusing, but that's about it, I don't take it seriouslly.

Winboard & Xboard are C, I don't have a clue how much work it was, but that's a
very good interface to pattern after.
