swingwt - Free implementation of Swing and AWT
- Description:
SwingWT is a 100% pure Java library which aims to be a free
implementation of Swing and AWT. Unlike Swing, it drives native peer
widgets for your platform from SWT.
SwingWT offers many benefits:
* More responsive GUIs and faster startup times
* Less RAM usage for applications
* Many developers prefer the Swing API
* Existing Swing applications don't need to be recoded
* Mature Swing UI designers can be used
* Developers deploying to *nix/Win32 can compile natively with
GCJ and the applications can be distributed without a VM.
Linux distribution makers could package many existing
Java/Swing applications that previously could not be
distributed in workable state
* SWT components can be directly accessed through the API,
allowing mix and match (make Eclipse plugins with Swing!)
* All platform benefits such as font sub-pixel decimation for
LCD monitors (unavailable in Swing)
* Use Swing on mobile devices!
* The best of both worlds! New Swing components for
JClosableTabbedPane, JCoolBar, JTaskTrayItem
* Insulation from changes to the SWT APIs
* Insulation from differences between SWT platforms
