[platform-swt-dev] Printing with GC and org.eclipse.swt.printing failing 
on MacOS X






I'm currently working with a few people on a SWT project where printing 
is needed. We are developing for the MacOS X 10.3.3 platform. Currently 
we're having trouble in implementing swt printing in our project. We 
then looked for some examples on swt printing and found this: 
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/~checkout~/platform-swt-home/ 
snippits/snippet132.html?rev=1.3&content-type=text/plain . We tried to 
run this on our target platform but were not successfull. What we get 
is the following NullPointerException on stringExtent():

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
                 at org.eclipse.swt.graphics.GC.setString(GC.java:2033)
                 at org.eclipse.swt.graphics.GC.textExtent(GC.java:2145)
                 at org.eclipse.swt.graphics.GC.stringExtent(GC.java:2085)
                 at Main.main(Main.java:45)


We also tried to run the example without getExtent() and failed also 
with a NullPointerException on drawString() . Are there any issues with 
GC on MacOS X? On a win32 machine everything worked fine. Are there any 
fixes for this? We are really pressed with this and would be glad if 
there was a bugfix or some help with this issue. Also, would it be 
possible to use AWT printing in a SWT project?

Thanks for any help you can give us!

Greetings,

Andres

BTW: Is this eclipse mailing-list appropriate for such questions and if 
not, which one would it be?
