Hi,
has everybody discussing here actually read the document ("Java Client
Roadmap Update")?
There's nothing about end of awt or swing support:
"Oracle will continue developing Swing and AWT in Java SE 8 and Java SE
11 (18.9 LTS). This means they will be supported by Oracle through at
least 2026."
Only JFX will be removed in Java 11 - but, of course, they can still
change their mind ...
Kind regards
Peter

Forget about AWT, Swing and JavaFX - the future is HTML. In case you
still
care about Java, then your future should be Apache HTML/Java API!
Funfact: Without JavaFX you don't have a HTML5 renderer in the core
JDK. So the only thing that could run your HTML/Java API is removed by
Oracle.
BTW: Swing was declared dead as often as Java itself. And just wonder
it is still here.
If this path is followed, I'll reconsider the IDE that is build on-top
of SWT.
Greetings
Matthias
