[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: What is this widget?

[Robert Enyedi <renyedi@xxxxxxxxx>]

Because this is a higher level GUI component it does not belong to SWT. It doesn't belong neither to JFace, but to the org.eclipse.ui plugin.

This means that I don't really see how you could use it for your standalone SWT application. Actually what would you like to use the view control for? To have the same look and dynamic behavior as seen in the Eclipse IDE?
