Starting in version 3.3., the .jnilib files (like the .DLL files for 
WIndows and .so files for Linux) are included in the SWT.JAR file. So, 
as long as you have the correct SWT.JAR for the target platform, I think 
it ought to work. I've done this on Windows and Linux, but don't have a 
Mac :(

You can double-check this by unzipping the SWT.JAR file and checking its 
contents. (I make a copy called swtjar.zip to do this.)

Hope this helps. Mark
