Right now I'm converting/planning to convert a projet to SWT
(dbmjui.sf.net, swt code is in cvs, instructions in the readme). I
managed to port/find equivalents to everything except table renderers.
You can have custom CellEditors (a checkbox in a column for exemple),
but table renderers are not available. I'm still trying to find a
solution. If your project does not rely on advanced table support, I
think you can convert to SWT without problem.
