[platform-swt-dev] Swing Integration

Hello,

With all this talk of integrating SWT with various windowing systems, I was
wondering it there were any plans to integrate it with Swing.  I noticed
that advert from Leonard Norrgard, but I would prefer something that was
still Open Source and free.  

The thing with SWT is that since it is heavyweight components, any
applications that we port across too, would display incorrectly (as
heavyweight and lightweight don't mix).

If there is integration in the plans, a request (from me at least) would be
that it simply replaces all of the Jxxx classes, so that all you need to do
to port is prepend the SWTSwing Jar - overriding the Java Swing classes.  So
the already written applications would suddenly have SWT displays.

Would this be possible (and feasible)?

I'm also very interested in the work with GTK as this will make it
compatible with a lot of O/S GUI environments.

Keep up the good work - it looks great!

Regards,
Peter
