Re: [platform-swt-dev] SWT-Cocoa: some StyledText fixes and Drawer implementation


Hi Mikhail,

Firstly, thanks for testing the Cocoa port and logging reports with patches!  At the moment our efforts are focused on the upcoming 3.4 release (June), but activity on Cocoa will be picking up soon.

To add a control like Drawer to swt there has to be an implementation made for all platforms.  These implementations may be emulated on platforms where they aren't available, but if a control is only available natively on one platform then it's not a strong candidate (I'm not sure how widespread the use of drawers are).  There is an existing report for this though, see https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=136036 .

[platform-swt-dev] SWT-Cocoa: some StyledText fixes and Drawer        implementation





Hi,

I'm developing an application based on SWT-Cocoa. Currently I'm
focused on a StyledText-based text editor.

I've found some problems with this control and would like to
contribute some code related to it. You can find the following patches
in the Bugzilla:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=230118
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=230119
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=230120

All the patches are related to mouse and keyboard event handling. They
may be not "very good" so I would appreciate any related thoughts
(perhaps you are already working on that or have some concrete plans
of implementation).

Also in my project I decided to use the NSDrawer control. As I see
currently there are no implementation of SWT wrappers for it. Thus
I've coded a quite simple implementation of it (I've attached the
patch). Please share your thoughts on it. Do you have any plans
regarding drawers and adding their implementation into the toolkit?
