Re: [platform-swt-dev] SWT JRE 1.5.0 Mac PowerPc

Hi, Romu.

I think Tom is right - you probably just need to tell java to startOnFirstThread.
Here's an FAQ about it:
http://www.eclipse.org/swt/faq.php#carbonapp

Also, this link might help - it tells how to deploy an application on the Mac:
http://www.eclipse.org/swt/macosx/

Hope this helps!

The problem could be that you need to start on OS-X with
-XstartOnFirstThread!
