Eclipse world domination
Werner Ramaekers tells
how one of the JBoss developers has modifed Jasper to call the Eclipse
JDT compiler instead of javac, resulting in HUGE speed
improvements. It is nice to see more technology leaking out
of Eclipse and into other projects. SWT was the obvious example
of this, and I think that the JDT compiler has the potential to do this
- after all it's an open source extendable incremental Java compiler --
a great testbed for compilation experiments.

Eclipse is a good thing, but i can't stand a technology such proprietary as SWT.
If IBM found that Swing was too heavy, they normal way would have been either trying ot improve it, then submiting a request for enhencement.
SWT is neither a core API, nor 100% Java made, so come the problem of symultaneous platform compatibility and availability.
Sorry, Swing is not perfect but i don't want to get back in develop once, test everywhere dev i used to have before Java ...
IMHO eclipse team should noz anticipate the upcoming performance improvement by pushing a 100% Java version of SWT (using Java2D).
Regards,
