I'm developing an application which requires the sam Look & Feel on any

to of eclipse. So is it possible to have the same Look & Feel on any
platform, maybe using the same Theme?

The other option is to forget eclipse and develop a standard swing
application and use the same Look & Feel on each platform. But so I have
to invent the wheel again.

There might be an alternate solution.
It is possible to embed swing GUI within SWT GUI.
By using a swing theme that has exactly the same look and feel on any platform, you could solve your problem in using swing within an RCP application.
Look at the articles on the eclipse.org main site for details about this kind of embedding.

Hope this helps.
