The default background of an ExpandBar in SWT appears to be a gradient of whichever color the operating system is using.
However, when I change the background of an ExpandBar in SWT, the controls switch to the Windows Classic style.
Is there a way to set the background of the ExpandBar without reverting to the Windows Classic look?

I load the embedded browser into Java and have it load a page.
It seems to load really slow... is this an issue with the page caching? What can I do to speed this up?

I'm creating a standalone SWT desktop application that has around 10 different screens (few wizards, help, forms, etc). Some elements on screen don't change at all (like header, background, etc) and there is a working area that changes depending on what is clicked, etc.
What is the best way to manage application screens? Do I need to cr...
This is more of an answer I'd like to share for the problem I was chasing for some time in RCP application using large SWT tables.
The problem is the performance of SWT Table.remove(int start, int end) method. It gives really bad performance - about 50msec per 100 items on my Windows XP. But the real show stopper was on Vista and Window...

I'm pretty new to Java and SWT, hoping to have one image dissolve into the next. I have one image now in a Label (relevant code):
Device dev = shell.getDisplay();
try {
Image photo = new Image(dev, "photo.jpg");
} catch(Exception e) { }
Label label = new Label(shell, SWT.IMAGE_JPEG);
label.setImage(photo);
Now I'd like photo to ...
After reading JavaDoc for ILazyTreeContentProvider and Virtual Tables and Trees I am a bit confused. Do they really mean that with a simple ITreeContentProvider all elements have to be loaded when the tree is created? I expected that getChildren() would only be called when expanding an element (and hasChildren() to be called to determine...

I have an Eclipse plugin which includes a view. The view has several icons in the toolbar. I'm experiencing a very strange problem: on Windows, in some occasions (after prolonged use), one of the icons gets slightly erased. This does not happen on other platforms.
This looks like a memory leak or some other resource misuse, but I just ...
I need to load font (.otf or .ttf) file from java Resource or InputStream in SWT.
org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Device.loadFont(String path) allows me (example) to load font from font file path (and it works), but there is no corresponding method to load it from any other source.
I was thinking of using java.awt.Font.createFont(int fontForm...
I've got a java project that uses an SWT UI and I'm having trouble deploying it on any Mac OS X computers. The program itself works perfectly on Windows when it is either run from within Eclipse or from a jar file. On Mac, the program also works fine in Eclipse, but when I try to run it from a jar file, I get the following error:

What is the best way for an SWT application to clean up resources before application exit? I see two options:
1) Add a DisposeListener to main window (or better, to the Display). Will it get run if an uncaught exception happens?
2) Use a shutdown hook. Any problems to be aware of there which aren't mentioned in Design of the Shutdown H...

Caveat: I'm still struggling with proper MVC in Eclipse plugin development, so if you see anything here that is most likely causing me more pain that I should be enduring, please let me know.
The question:

I have an action th...
