Well, yes. It helps. But in general, the part of D that Java supports 
looks very similar in Java and D. There are a few corner cases where 
both languages uses the same syntax but the semantics are slightly 
different.

The thing is that I don't have much experience with these libraries. I 
have used GTK for a project but that was using C#. I have never used Qt 
or wx.

I recommend trying to find some page that compares SWT, Qt, GTK and wx 
and see what it says.

Just so it's not forgotten, JFace is an Eclipse library built on top of 
SWT for simplifying some tasks. JFace is port to D as well.
