[news.eclipse.platform.pde] eclipse views and java.swing

[Mikael <mikael_wozniak@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm writting some Eclipse views for my perspective.

So far, they are all using swing  (with a sort of swt/swing bridge) and things were kind of OK. But on Friday, I tried one of my view on someone else machine and i had the follwing happening:

a JPopup menu wouldn't show when using the .show() method! 
No exception thrown, nothing, the swing code line is run with the same parameters on both computers. On mine it works, on his, it doesn't? 

First, has anyone seen a similar bug before?

Secondly, I'm considering moving to SWT for all my work as I found some annoying minor bugs with JTable and JDialogBox. What would you recommend?

Thanks

Mikael


PS: By the way, is this forum the biggest for eclipse plug-in development?
