[platform-swt-dev] Cheat Sheets

["Anthony Bennis" <anthonybennis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm attempting to use the Eclipse Cheat Sheets in a stand alone SWT widget.
It appears to
rely on a lot of Eclipse jars. 

Does anyone know if this can be done? Or if there's any plans by the SWT team
to remove the dependencies this widget has on the Eclipse platform?


At the momnent, I'm getting a null pointer when I do this:

ICheatSheetViewer cheatSheetViewer = CheatSheetViewerFactory.createCheatSheetView();


Here's the stack trace:

java.lang.NullPointerException
	at org.eclipse.core.runtime.Platform.getPluginStateLocation(Platform.java:346)

	at org.eclipse.ui.internal.cheatsheets.data.CheatSheetSaveHelper.<init>(CheatSheetSaveHelper.java:38)

	at org.eclipse.ui.internal.cheatsheets.views.CheatSheetViewer.<init>(CheatSheetViewer.java:71)

	at org.eclipse.ui.cheatsheets.CheatSheetViewerFactory.createCheatSheetView(CheatSheetViewerFactory.java:40)
