In the SWT lecture you learned the fundamentals of SWT. The SWT widgets solution demonstrates some commonly used widgets (Button, Composite, Display, FileDialog, Font, Group, List, ProgressBar, Shell, and Styled Text) and their event listeners. It also demonstrates synchronization of UI and non-UI threads using the Display class. Also see the companion project com.ibm.lab.soln.layouts.

To run the example, in the Plug-in Development
perspective, launch the run-time instance
of Eclipse (Run > Run As > Run-time Workbench) . Select Window > Show View > Other… Then, expand Soln: SWT and select Soln: SWT Lab. The view should display. Double click on
the view title bar so the view occupies the
entire workbench window. In several cases,
when you interact with the widgets in the
view, information is displayed in the Console
view of the launch instance of Eclipse.
An Eclipse view is used as the widget container. You will learn more about views in a separate topic. Start your investigation of the code with the open method in the SWTView class.
The example is contained in a single class in the com.ibm.lab.soln.swt
package.
