Re: [platform-swt-dev] OSX SWT Compatibility

[Kevin Barnes <krbarnes@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Steve,
Your chart is a little too rigid. It depends on the VM that you are using and your personal preference.
Java 5: On Leopard you can choose Cocoa or Carbon. If you have 64 bit hardware, you may opt opt for the x86_64 port. On Tiger, your only option is carbon.
Java6 is 64-bit only so you'll need Leopard and Cocoa x86_64 SWT libraries.

Subject	[platform-swt-dev] OSX SWT Compatibility

Now that SWT Cocoa is about to release, what is the compatibility with
OSX versions, JVMs, and architectures?

I saw no clear documentation.  Below are my guesses, but I am unsure.
I am assuming that it is using a JRE1.5.  Could someone expand this to
cover all scenarios?  Even better, put it on the website - should I
write a bug against the site?

                           Tigerx86 | Leopardx86 | Leopardx86_64
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Carbon                |      Y     |         Y          |           N
         |
Cocoa x86           |      N    |         Y           |         N            |
Cocoa x86_64      |      N    |        N           |         Y             |

Thanks and don't forget mother's day!
