[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: org.eclipse.swt.ole.win32.OleAutomation

[Rudi Ernst <h1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok guys,

I see that there is no proper newsgroup for aasking this question. The
adobe.acrobat.sdk group seems to be dead, an the eclipse groups are
not really concerned. Please forgive my next shot.

I have found some examples to communicate with MS Word or Internet
Explorer via OleAutomation however nobody seems to be using the
Acrobat plugin. 

Has really nobody ever done such things like:

    - showing PDFs with the Acrobat Browser Plugin in a SWT Browser
view
    - customizing this Acrobat Browser Plugin so that some menu items
are disabled and some new ones are added
    - adding some listeners to the Browser Widget to monitor user
actions

Can anybody give me a hint where I can find some information about
this or has anybody a working example for this issues.

Thanks
