Zeng,

 

Sometime back I posted a URL http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/platform-swt-home/dev.html which contains the sample code for using all the widgets in SWT. Probably this will be the right place to start for. Just check that out. Try out the examples and then do some play around with the code. U'll find SWT easy.

 

Also www.javalobby.com has a section for Tips an Tricks. You can find few good articles there as well.

 

Cheers

- Samir

Hello. 

Here 
is the SWT "Getting Started" page: 
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/~checkout~/platform-swt-home/SWT_Resources.html 
You might consider buying a couple of the books 
listed on this page to learn more about SWT and JFace. 
The first book, SWT: The Standard Widget Toolkit, Volume 1is only about SWT. The other 4 books are about eclipse, JFace, 
and SWT. 

Here is an SWT snippet that 
does what you describe: 

import 
org.eclipse.swt.*; 
import 
org.eclipse.swt.events.*; 
import 
org.eclipse.swt.layout.*; 
import 
org.eclipse.swt.widgets.*; 

public class ButtonTextLabel { 
        public static void main (String [] args) 
{ 
          
      Display display = new Display 
(); 
        
        Shell shell = new Shell 
(display); 
      
          shell.setLayout (new GridLayout ()); 
                
              
  final Text text = 
new Text(shell, SWT.SINGLE | SWT.BORDER); 
            
    text.setText("This is the Text"); 
            
    
      
          final Label label = 
new Label(shell, SWT.NONE); 
              
  label.setText("This 
is the Label"); 

              
  Button push = new Button (shell, 
SWT.PUSH); 
      
          push.setText ("Push"); 
            
    push.addSelectionListener(new 
SelectionAdapter() { 
    
                    
public void 
widgetSelected(org.eclipse.swt.events.SelectionEvent e) { 
              
                  
label.setText(text.getText()); 
  
                      
} 
          
      }); 

  
              shell.pack (); 
              
  shell.open (); 
    
            while 
(!shell.isDisposed ()) { 
  
                      
if (!display.readAndDispatch ()) display.sleep 
(); 
        
        } 
  
              display.dispose (); 
        } 
} 

In future, please ask user questions on the SWT newsgroup. The "Getting 
Started" page, above, has details on how to do that. 
Also, JFace questions (like your ApplicationWindow 
question) need to be asked on the eclipse.platform newsgroup. 

Hope this helps, 
Carolyn

Subject	[platform-swt-dev] I'm fresh in using swt

Hello all,
                
I'm fresh in using swt.Authough I have seen many articles and pdfs, I
still 
have some questions.
                
When an widget'action happend, it is quite usual to get some inputs
from the 
UI ,and then ouput the results on the UI.How can I operate an
widget to get 
and ouput the information in an action procedure.For
example, a button 
'ActionButton' is selected, then the coresponding
selectionAction will 
excecute. Within the action procedure, I want to
get the string from the Text 
'TextB' and display the string in the
wigdet Label 'LabelC'. How? Please give 
me some examples.
                
 I want to use org.eclipse.jface.window.ApplicationWindow to create
my 
own appliction. Can ApplicationWindow set many Composite?How to?
  
              Thanks.
Best 
regards,
Zeng
