Running your Java application on a host that does not have a GUI

If you want to run your Java™ application on a host that does not have a graphical user interface (GUI), such as an IBM® i server, you can use the Native Abstract Windowing Toolkit (NAWT).

Use NAWT to provide your Java applications and servlets with the full capability of the Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE) AWT graphics functionality.
