RE: [platform-swt-dev] Appropriate list to ask a basic SWT question
|
I was
handed a Java desktop application and asked to make it accessible using the
Access Bridge and SWING... after nearly four months of research and coding the
application was as useless as snow tires in Bermuda. Eventually I stumbled upon
Eclipse and ultimately SWT. I convinced my project leader to let me try the same
application with SWT and about a month later even with the learning curve the
application went into testing. So I guess the proof is in the pudding when first
of all I can use Eclipse with relatively few issues and produce fully accessible
applications for screen readers and Braille displays.
Nice
to meet you as well.

Nice
to meet you, Jim!
I'm glad that SWT
works for you.

I was working under the assumption that this list was for
those of us who use SWT in projects, however I find this list extremely
informative.
I'm the sole blind developer with the Canadian Revenue
Agency and I'm actively pressing for a replacement of the Sun Access Bridge in
favour of the SWT approach to accessibility.

It was
intended to be a place to discuss SWT implementation issues.
In practice, whenever any
interesting discussion starts, we immediately create a Bugzilla bug for it so
that the entire discussion can be captured in one place (i.e. nothing is lost
in random email threads).
In addition, if we track everything in Bugzilla, then when the bug
is closed, it means that the issue is resolved.

...may I ask a
rather silly question: What is the intended purpose of this list... all joking
aside?

Basic SWT questions are best asked on the SWT
newsgroup.
First, you might want to look through
http://www.eclipse.org/swt/
and maybe run some snippets, get the eclipse examples and try them,
look at the FAQ, and read a few articles on the documentation
page.
If you
still have a question, the newsgroup is here:
news://news.eclipse.org/eclipse.platform.swt
Have fun!
