13. Is "The Definitive Guide to SWT and JFACE" just a guide? coderanch.comAs the title suggests, The Definitive Guide to SWT and JFace aims to address the totality of the SWT and JFace libraries. Since our goal was addressing cross-platform GUI applications, we left out platform-specific stuff (read: ActiveX embedding), and some late additions didn't make it in (e.g. adding icons to the system tray). It covers beginning through advanced SWT and JFace, ... |

17. Different between SWT and JFace?? coderanch.comIn a nutshell, SWT is a widget toolkit (buttons, menus, tables, trees, et al.), that uses native widgets to ensure precise desktop integration and best performance. JFace is an abstraction layer that rides on top of SWT--sort of an MVC layer. You can use SWT without using JFace, but in many cases JFace makes development easier. |
