Re: [platform-swt-dev] Sweet Cocoa

>From Steve's blog it looks like the Cocoa code is not going to be supported on versions older than Leopard.

I actually think that's a good thing, since it means that the code can take advantage of all the new frameworks and features that are available without being tied down to older versions.

SWT Carbon is always available for older versions.

Putting in a check like you describe sounds like a good idea. I'd recommend filing a bug for it and attaching a patch.

PS. I'm not a committer, just an interested party that hopes to have a hand in getting this working by patching what I can.

I've updated to HEAD today, and it does the same again on Tiger.
Should I open a bug, or is Leopard only going to be the one that
works? If so, it might be an idea to put a test for disabling trying
to run (e.g . by throwing a Java exception) in the Display.init for the
cocoa build if it's not 10.5.

scala> System.getProperty("os.version")
unnamed0: java.lang.String = 10.4.11
