Re: [nebula-dev] Convert XViewer to use org.eclipse.swt.widgets.DateTime
Hi,

IMHO the CalendarCombo should be put to the Incubation project to find its place to rest in peace. Compared to org.eclipse.swt.widgets.DateTime, there seems to be no more additional value by using CalendarCombo.

I might be wrong, but the value that was added by CalendarCombo in the past doesn't exist anymore. Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Greez,
Dirk

Hi Donald,

Thanks for the update. 

CalendarCombo is in the release project, it is created by Emil and you and Emil were looking after it [1].

I also understand that Emil was not too happy about CalendarCombo, exactly for the reasons you mention now. 

Should we demote CalendarCombo and put it in the Incubation project?

Regards,

Wim

XViewer and it’s tests were using the Nebuala CalendarCombo which does not work on GTK and thus Linux.  See note at the bottom of http://eclipse.org/nebula/widgets/calendarcombo/calendarcombo.php for more information.

                                                                                                                                                                        

Planning on switching to the org.eclipse.swt.widgets.DateTime which supports everything but a clear button, which XViewer can implement itself.
