I have seen this implemented using a JList and a JPanel. There is no premade control for it like in .NET. However you can easily create one by basically drawing in the icons and have it redraw any time the container control is resized. Of course it will also implement the scrollable interface to make it scrollable.

The left hand side of course can be done with a basic Tree class.

Hope that is what you were looking for. :)
