Do both classes extend JDialog?  If so, try passing JDialog.


     public void showDlgSimLib() {
         dlg_ec_simlib dlg = new dlg_ec_simlib(this);
         showDlg( dlg );
     }
     public void showDlgSynLib() {
         dlg_ec_synlib dlg = new dlg_ec_synlib(this);
         showDlg( dlg );
     }
     public void showDlg(JDialog dlg) {
         Dimension dlgSize = dlg.getPreferredSize();
         Dimension frmSize = getSize();
         Point loc = getLocation();
         dlg.setLocation((frmSize.width - dlgSize.width) / 2 + loc.x,
 (frmSize.height - dlgSize.height) / 2 + loc.y);
         dlg.show();
     }

If the two classes are completely lacking in shared DNA, use a 
marker interface, assuming you have source for both classes.

Define an interface, call it "Foo" for lack of something more descriptive.
Foo doesn't need to define any methods, it just has to exist.  

Now edit both classes to say they implement Foo.  Now pass them
as type Foo.

     public void showDlgSimLib() {
         dlg_ec_simlib dlg = new dlg_ec_simlib(this);
         showDlg( dlg );
     }
     public void showDlgSynLib() {
         dlg_ec_synlib dlg = new dlg_ec_synlib(this);
         showDlg( dlg );
     }
     public void showDlg(Foo dlg) {
         Dimension dlgSize = dlg.getPreferredSize();
         Dimension frmSize = getSize();
         Point loc = getLocation();
         dlg.setLocation((frmSize.width - dlgSize.width) / 2 + loc.x,
 (frmSize.height - dlgSize.height) / 2 + loc.y);
         dlg.show();
     }
