| <p>(NOTE: these instructions will only work for Eclipse 3.3 and newer) To run the ControlExample or CustomControlExample standalone:</p> |
| <ol> |
| <li>Go to the Eclipse downloads page at <a href="http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/index.php"> |
| http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/index.php</a>.</li> |
| <li>Click on the Eclipse build that you would like examples for |
| (i.e. the Eclipse/SWT build that you are running; typically the latest Stable Build).</li> |
| <li>Scroll down until you see "Example Plug-ins", download the .zip for your platform, and extract it to your local machine.</li> |
| <li>In the directory with the extracted example plug-ins, find file <code>org.eclipse.swt.examples_<version>.jar</code>, and extract it in place.</li> |
| <li>Open a DOS window (on Windows) or a terminal window (on Mac or Linux) and navigate to this directory.</li> |
| <li>To run the example, type the following line with the appropriate paths substituted:<br> |
| |
| <code><pathToYourJRE>\bin\java -classpath <pathOfYourPlatformSWTjar>;.\swtexamples.jar org.eclipse.swt.examples.controlexample.ControlExample</code> |
| |
| <p>This is the ControlExample. There is a tab for each control, and you can |
| change the various styles, etc, to see what changes in the controls. To run |
| the CustomControlExample simply use the class name CustomControlExample |
| instead of ControlExample in step 6.</p></li> |
