[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: how to make a scrollable view ?

[anthony.saucet@xxxxxxxxxxx (anthony saucet)]

I have tried everything possible, according to the javadoc, I got
everything possible, except widgets in the view. It's always empty.
According to the javadoc, the composite is:
> Composite comp = new Composite(scrolledComposite, SWT.NONE);
but for a view, the composite is given as argument to createPartControl().
If I give a new composite, it doesn't replace the old one.
