Kiril,
I am just back from vacation and will start another vacation
soon (That’s one of the nice things when you work in Germany J). So the earliest time I could take a deeper look at it would
be in September. I promise that I go into it as soon as I am back.
Best wishes,
Kai

Subject: [e4-dev] Re: Using Trident to add animations to SWT
applications
Kai,
I've finished porting the Onyx demo to SWT - project Granite. The full sources
are in SVN, and i've written a series of posts about using Trident to add
various types of animations to a rich internet-enabled SWT application. The
last entry is at [1] and has the links to the specific posts on various parts
of Granite.
This list has been a little quiet lately (since 0.9 release), so i'm not sure
what would be the next step in this discussion.
Thanks
Kirill

Subject: Using Trident to add animations to SWT applications
Hi
Kai
The first drop of the code is available in the SVN repository of project
Granite [1]. You can view a short video at [2] - it shows most of the
functionality in Granite, including rollover pulsation effects in the main
album view, as well as the complex animation scenario that shows detailed track
list of clicked album.
While most of the logic is very similar to Onyx (the original Swing demo), i
have tried to not "write Swing in SWT" - but instead follow the SWT
best practices.
If you want to run the code locally, you will need:
* The first snapshot of Granite
* The latest 1.1dev snapshot of Trident - at [3] or in the project SVN
* SWT from Eclipse 3.5 (might run under earlier versions)
* org.eclipse.core.jobs JAR from Eclipse 3.5 (might run under earlier versions)
* org.eclipse.equinox.common JAR from Eclipse 3.5 (might run under earlier
versions) (might run under earlier versions)
* org.eclipse.osgi JAR from Eclipse 3.5
The last three are used to show how Eclipse jobs can be wrapped as custom
Trident scenario actors (see
org.pushingpixels.granite.EclipseJobTimelineScenarioActor class and its
usages). Instead of writing an SWT version of SwingWorker, i just reused the
existing Eclipse functionality.
Let me know if you have questions about the code, or experience any problems in
compiling and running the demo. The main class is
org.pushingpixels.granite.DemoApp and you will need an Amazon E-commerce access
key. If you don't have one, you can register at [4] (look for "Sign Up
Now" button). The key is passed as the argument to the VM.
Thanks
Kirill

Kirill,
I
have been following both the SceneGraph and your Trident activities in the last
months. I would love to see your (swing) demo running in an SWT
environment and discuss in this list how Trident might fit into e4.
Best
regards,
Kai

I have prepared the docu-ware required by the
Eclipse development process for the e4 0.9 release. I have attached a draft of
the slides here for e4 committers to review. Please let me know of any errors
or ommissions.
