Re: [platform-swt-dev] Internet Explorer in SWT example doesn't work

You have not given the OleFrame any size.

The following line (or something like it) is required:

mainShell.setLayout(new FillLayout());

[platform-swt-dev] Internet Explorer in SWT example doesn't work






Hi there, 
 
I have been following the examples to place internet explorere into an SWT 
frame. The example doesn't actually specify any specific need for the 
Canvas or Shell that it is embedded into,
 
here is my code so far (taken stratight from the example)
 
display = new Display();
mainShell = new Shell(display);
OleFrame oleFrame  = new OleFrame(mainShell, SWT.CENTER);
OleControlSite controlSite = new OleControlSite(oleFrame, SWT.NONE, 
"Shell.Explorer");
OleAutomation automation = new OleAutomation(controlSite);
int[] rgdispid = automation.getIDsOfNames(new String[]{"Navigate"});
int dispIdMember = rgdispid[0];
Variant[] rgvarg = new Variant[1]; // this is the URL parameter
rgvarg[0] = new Variant("www.ibm.com");
Variant pVarResult = automation.invoke(dispIdMember, rgvarg);
 
mainShell.pack();
SWTUtils.center(mainShell);
mainShell.open();
 
now whether I  put  the navigate code
 
***
int[] rgdispid = automation.getIDsOfNames(new String[]{"Navigate"});
int dispIdMember = rgdispid[0];
Variant[] rgvarg = new Variant[1]; // this is the URL parameter
rgvarg[0] = new Variant("www.ibm.com");
Variant pVarResult = automation.invoke(dispIdMember, rgvarg);
***
 
before or after opening the shell, I still get a grey window about 50x50 
pixels.
 
Nothing is displayed in it.
 
What am I doing wrong, I am sure it's simple, so be nice ;) 
 
Any help would be appreciated
 
 
Regards
 
Steve
