Re: [platform-swt-dev] Current status on the MacOsX port

Oops.  I will go update the SWT port page.  We have moved on from the M1 
version.

There is active development on the SWT port for Mac OS X.  The last 
integration build 
(http://download.eclipse.org/downloads/drops/I-I20030429-200304291456/index.php) 
includes a performance enhancement which will make switching between 
perspectives faster.

We are tracking our efforts to make Mac OS X faster in the following bug 
reports:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=36732
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=29642

Also, if you identify a particular scenario that is extremely slow on the 
mac, enter a bug report with the info (against Platform SWT) and we will 
look at it.

Hey there,

the SWT port status page says that Eclipse 2.1 for MacOsX includes the 
M1 version for stability reason. Anyone out there could give me a more 
detailed update on the current code status of SWT on MacOsX ? I'm 
asking because as a switcher from Win2K pro to MacOsX I've been a 
little disappointed by the overall slow performance of Eclipse and was 
wondering if this has to do with using the Carbon API instead of Cacao. 
I have to admit that my knowledge on those technologies is near zero, 
so I apologize if it doesn't make any sense. Moreover if there is some 
active development on the SWT port for MacOsX, I'm willing to give a 
hand on testing, would that be feasible ?

Thanks for any info you could provide, would be much appreciate,

Sebastien
