[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: Accessibility issue with Image Button

["Grant Gayed" <grant_gayed@xxxxxxxxxx>]

You should just set the image on the Button and add an AccessibleListener to
provide the text to be spoken.  AccessibleListener is demonstrated in
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.swt.snippets/src/org/eclipse/swt/snippets/Snippet164.java?view=co .
