Re: [platform-swt-dev] Cannot layout new widgets on a non rectangular shell
|
Nick,
The paragraph regarding multiple UI threads is completely
incorrect and it was removed from the doc a long time ago.
You must be looking at doc from eclipse 2.1: http://help.eclipse.org/help21/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/guide/swt_threading.htm
Check out some more recent doc, from eclipse 3.2:
http://help.eclipse.org/help32/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/guide/swt_threading.htm
Abhishek,
Make sure your composite has a layout, but your shell
does not. Before opening the shell, pack() the composite, and position
it on the shell using setLocation(x, y).
Make sure you put it in a place that is not being
clipped out by the transparent region on the shell.
Both of you,
In future, please ask this type of user question on
the swt newsgroup.
Thanks,
Carolyn

OK, I see. I am still confused about the vertical
scrolling. You want a
vertical
scrollbar too right? I am not sure how to implement this in a non
rectangular window and
how such a scrollbar should look like ...
Does your code work appart from the vertical scrolling?
/nick
PS: Here the problem I have using multiple shells (posted this in March,
no suggestions so far):
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I tried to write an application that has multiple UI-threads working
simultaneously.
According to the doc this should be possible if I understand correctly:
----------------
Note: The most common threading model for an SWT application is to
run
a single UI thread and
perform long operations in computational threads. However, SWT does not
restrict developers to this model.
An application could run multiple UI-threads with a separate event loop
in each thread.
----------------
The following application creates two windows as expected and all 3
thread seem to execute
simultaneously (tested on Windows XP). However, only one application
window is properly refreshed.
What is wrong?
-------------------------
import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.FillLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Label;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell;
class UserInterface extends Thread {
public void run() {
Display display = new Display();
Shell shell = new Shell(display);
shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());
new Label(shell, SWT.SEPARATOR | SWT.HORIZONTAL);
new Label(shell, SWT.SEPARATOR | SWT.VERTICAL);
shell.setSize(200, 200);
shell.open();
while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
if (!display.readAndDispatch())
display.sleep();
System.out.println(Thread.currentThread().getName());
}
display.dispose();
}
}
public class SwtBackgroundThreadApplication {
public SwtBackgroundThreadApplication() {
// create a new thread and start it
UserInterface userIf = new UserInterface();
userIf.start();
// create a new thread and start it
UserInterface userIf2 = new UserInterface();
userIf2.start();
// do forever
while (true) {
System.out.println("main
thread running");
try {
Thread.sleep(2000);
} catch (InterruptedException
e) {
// TODO Auto-generated
catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
new SwtBackgroundThreadApplication();
}
}
