About GUI and IDE Interface

[Bob Calco]

Gabor:

Exactly. I'm looking into the SWT now, as an alternative to wxWindows. The
SWIG thing is still a separate but real project possibility. But if we did
develop an SWT port for Mozart, by and or otherwise, that would give us an
interesting story to tell in terms of using Oz to develop Eclipse solutions
instead of Java.

Sincerely,

Bob

%% Without the intention to discourage anyone from any other project:
%% Please consider that eclipse is not _that_ java.
%% Especially the GUI part, where SWT instead of AWT gives you all the
%% speed you need, and unless you are about to invent something totally
%% unique in the field of IDE-s, the "eclipse platform" is supposed to
%% provide you high level components for everything you need. So, in
%% theory, there's hardly any GUI programming left to do.
%%
%% We are considering the option of porting our application to the
%% eclipse platform, and our only consern sofar is migrating our
%% awt/swing-based custom widgets.
