[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: SWT and mySQL - how?

[Yves Harms <user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You can find an example how to use the tableviewer framework in this 
newsgroup by searching for the subject "Minimal TableViewer example".
Don't forget to check out the introductory articles featured at 
eclipse.org's arcticles section also.

SWT and JFACE currently offer no functionality for dealing with the 
database. You'll have to fetch your data per jdbc and then put it into 
the tableviewer.
