Hey all, Because of the discussion on GUI libraries over here and the minor role SWT and JFace are playing in this discussion, I wanted to show how independent SWT is of Eclipse. Also I needed a way to download SWT without downloading complete Eclipse and ripping the required libraries out of it by hand.
Therefore I've created an Ant build file that downloads SWT based on GTK from CVS and builds the Java libraries. This build file is the only thing you need to install SWT based on GTK and will just download the sources of SWT (unfortunately for all windowing systems). Maybe you want to have a look at this so you can get an impression of SWT without having to struggle with Eclipse. I think this code is quite portable to .NET which means that we get a fast windowing system independent GUI library for free, with a huge collection of windowing systems (win32, carbon, gtk, motif). You can download the build file over here: http://www.pandoramix.org/software/build.xml The main target is: ant fresh: download, compile, create libs and Javadocs Of course Ant, a recent Java version, CVS, Ant and GTK2 are required to run the code. Examples are also downloaded, but these are not compiled.
