[platform-swt-dev] Some newbie-questions about swt

[Clemens Eisserer <Linuxhippy@xxxxxx>]

Hi!

I'm very new at SWT so may I ask a some stupid questions ;-)...

1. I want to use SWT for my apps, because I dont like swing at all. Its 
slow and I hate the fading-feeling...
  I dindnt find very much documentation about SWT. I'm only a 
Java-newbie and so I need some easy docs..Where can I find them

2. Are there any gui-builders avaible wich have support for swt? I dont 
want to code all my guis at hand ;-)

3. Can I use other widget-libraries than MOTIF on the linux-platform? 
Motif looks so old and it isnt beutiful at all. (e.g. GTK1,2,QT or 
something else)

4. Does gcj ( a native java-compiler) supports SWT? And how can that be 
done? Are there any docus about that avaible?

5. How hard is it to code using SWT? Is it harder that swing?


Thanks for your patient, Clemens
