<h2>Set up your Java environment:</h2>
<ol>
<li>Download and install a Java JRE (SWT only requires a 1.4.x JRE to
run but you can obviously use more recent ones).<br>
</li>
<li>Download and install current Eclipse build. (<a
href="http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/">Available here</a>) Select
the "Eclipse Classic" download.</li>
<li>Setup SWT from CVS. Make sure to check out <span
style="font-style: italic;">org.eclipse.swt</span>, any swt fragment
you need (ex. <span style="font-style: italic;">org.eclipse.swt.gtk.linux.x86</span>),
<span style="font-style: italic;">org.eclipse.swt.snippets</span>,
and <span style="font-style: italic;">org.eclipse.swt.examples</span>.
(See <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/swt/cvs.php">instructions here</a>).
<br>
</li>
<li>Create a private CVS project for your test code. This is
important to keep track of bugs that are fixed.<br>
</li>
<li>Click on any Snippet or example, and select Run As&gt;Java
Application.<br>
</li>
</ol>
