[news.eclipse.tools.ve] Re: how to implement it by using VE/ SWT?

["eclipse.newcomer" <qingxing20052@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, IchBin:

Thanks for your suggestion and links.

I still have following quesitons:

1. If I want to keep the tool tip showing as long as the cursor is in the
component, can I do it in SWT?

In Swing, it is easy to do it:
Set ToolTipManager the Max number value.

But SWT doesn't support such method.

How to solve this problem?

2. I am a little sorry that I can't follow you for the suggestion.

>From the links, I know the method about how to make executable jar file.
Thx!!!

But my case is following:
I have already had one JAR-file (executable JAR file: A.jar), and I want to
creat one UI which only contains one button that will be involved A.jar file
when the button is pressed. So I think that I need to use key event. But
what shall I write in it? I find the way for exe file, but no for the JAR
file yet. So it is my obstacle.

I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Any suggestion and answer are helpful!!

Thx. :0)
