Re: [equinox-dev] Re: Splash screen customization with Swing

[Andrew Niefer <aniefer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

There is no reason why you couldn't
do that without the workbench.  You just wouldn't be using the AbstractSplashHandler.

Assuming you already have a bundle activated
that does your existing splash screen, you can just put the swt-awt stuff
there.

There is an interface org.eclipse.osgi.service.runnable.StartupMonitor
that you could implement and register a service with.    This
will get you time on the main thread during startup if you need it.

OOoh, I may have spoken too soon.  The solution
I presented is built  
on top of the RCP workbench, not Equinox directly.   My apologies.
