[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Acrobat Reader

[Peter Gerstbach <peter.gerstbach@xxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I'm trying to embed an Acrobat Reader in an Eclipse application on 
Windows XP. I tried the example from IBM's article about ActiveX 
controls in SWT [1].

It works with Eclipse 3 , but only if I have installed Acrobat 5. The 
following line is used to create the Control:

  site = new OleControlSite(frame, SWT.NONE, "PDF.PdfCtrl.5");

In some forum I found out that one have to use "PDF.PdfCtrl.6" and 
"AcroPDF.PDF.1" for Acrobat Reader version 6 and 7 respectively. But it 
does not work with any of these three IDs. The following Exception is 
thrown:
org.eclipse.swt.SWTException: Class ID not found in registry result = 
-2147221005

Is this a problem with SWT or is the Class ID incorrect?

Regards,
Peter
