Re: [platform-swt-dev] JNLP for SWT (was re: Can an SWT applet be created?)
|
In the SWT FAQ:
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/platform-swt-home/faq.html#othersources
we reference Jeff Gunther's web site on how to "Deploy an SWT application
using Java Web Start"

That would require a means to plug-in SWT's native code into the
browser. Obviously that would be quite browser+platform specific.
Clearly a case where a pure Java implementation of SWT would be
beneficial.
A more practical approach would be to create a JNLP (Java Web Start)
application as that does support deploying native code and can usually
be launched from a browser. It would be very helpful if the Eclipse/SWT
site provided an example for this (if it does not already do so).
