| <title>SWT - Example Launcher</title> |

| |
| <h2>SWT Example Launcher</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| The Example Launcher is used to launch SWT examples, which can either be Workbench views |
| or standalone applications. |
| </p> |
| |
| <ul> |
| <li>Workbench views are examples that are integrated into Eclipse. When the launcher |
| starts a Workbench view, it is opened in the currently active perspective. |
| <li>Standalone applications are launched in a separate window. |
| </ul> |
| |
| <p> |
| For information on how to run the standalone examples without the SWT Example Launcher, |
| refer to <a href="../../org.eclipse.swt.examples/doc-html/swt_manual_setup.html">SWT standalone examples setup</a>. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The SWT Workbench view examples can also be launched directly without using the SWT Example |
| Launcher. SWT Workbench view examples can be found under the <strong>SWT Examples</strong> category of the |
| <strong>Show Views</strong> dialog. |
| </p> |
| |
| <h3>Running the Example Launcher</h3> |
| |
| <p> |
| From Eclipse's <strong>Window</strong> menu, select <strong>Show View > Other</strong>. |
| In the <strong>Show View</strong> dialog, expand <strong>SWT Examples</strong> and select the <strong>SWT Example Launcher</strong> view. |
| A view containing a list of examples will appear in your current perspective. |
| When you select an example from the list a brief description of the example is displayed. |
| Click on the <strong>Run</strong> button to launch the example. |
