Re: [platform-swt-dev] Problem Accessing the SWT parent of a AWT control

[Silenio Quarti <Silenio_Quarti@xxxxxxxxxx>]

It is possible to get the Frame associated
with an SWT Composite by calling
SWT_AWT.getFrame(Composite), but this
is not exactly what you want. I see
two options:

1) you traverse the whole SWT shell
hierarchy checking if any child is a SWT.EMBEDDED
Composite and if SWT_AWT.getFrame(Composite)
for that composite is your frame. This
can be a bit expensive depending on
the depth/size of the hierarchy.

2) If you have control over the code
that created the Frame when calling SWT_AWT.new_Frame(),
you can remember the composite used
as the parent somehow. In SWT, you can associated
data with a widget by calling Widget.setData(key,
value). Is there something similar in AWT?

Subject	[platform-swt-dev] Problem Accessing the SWT parent of a AWT        control.

Hi all ,

     I am embedding an AWT frame into a SWT composite of a Dialog,
using
    SWT_AWT.newFrame().And using a listener of a component inside
the AWT
    component(which is added to the frame),I tried accessing
the parent of the
    embedded frame.I need to get hold of the composite and its
parent which
    is a Dialog and dispose it.

    I tried accessing the parent of the frame by accessing the
parent of the  
    using the instance of the parent,but in vain.

    Can any body please help me solve this problem?

Thanks and Best Regards,
SOLOMON _______________________________________________
