I couldn't make that code compile on my (Win98) system. So I 
peeked at vtkPanel.java and found that the method 
vtkPanel.GetRenderer() called in test.java was actually 
vtkPanel.getRenderer().

On line 39 of test.java, try replacing 

	vtkRenderer ren1 = renPanel.GetRenderer();

with

	vtkRenderer ren1 = renPanel.getRenderer();
