 Eclipse Platform Release Notes<br>
 SWT</h1>
 SWT Build 118 - Saturday June 2, 2001

 <h2><a NAME="API Changes"></a>API Changes</h2>

 <h3><a NAME="SWT Examples are now a plugin"></a>SWT Examples are now a plugin</h3>

 <p> SWT examples run as a plugin in the Eclipse desktop.

 <p> To run the examples, follow these steps:

 <ol>
 	<li>Perspective -> Show View -> Other...
 	<li>In the Show View dialog, expand the topmost SWT Examples category.
 	<li>Select "Launcher" and click OK to get the SWT Launcher view.
 	<li>From this view, you can launch all of the SWT Examples, including both stand-alone examples (10 of them) and plugin examples (3 of them: Controls, Paint, & OLE).
 </ol>

 <b>Notes:</b>
 <ul>
 	<li>Select an example in the launcher list to see a description of the example.
 	<li>Press the Run button or double-click the example to launch it.
 	<li>If the example has a source jar (i.e. the plugin examples have source jars), then press Add to Workspace to add the source to a project in your workspace.
 	<li>An alternate way to launch the Controls, Paint, & OLE examples, since they are plugins, is to select them from Perspective -> Show View -> Other...
  </ul>

 SWT Build 108 - Thursday May 17, 2001

 <h2><a NAME="API Changes"></a>API Changes</h2>

 <h3><a NAME="SWT in its own plugin"></a>SWT in its own plugin</h3>

 SWT is now in its own plugin called org.eclipse.swt.
 The jars and dll/library files are now located in this new plugin folder.
 Formerly, the SWT classes were included in the workbench.jar and the dll/libraries
 were located in the org.eclipse.ui plugin.
 <p>
 <b>NOTE:</b> You may need to change some of your scripts that invoke SWT examples
 to point at the new jar and dll/lib location.
 Also, when you launch UI Main you must specify the windowing system in the command line
 using the "-ws <windowing system>" argument.
 For example, on windows, eclipse.bat now has the following appearance:

 <pre>
 	.\jre\bin\java -verify -cp startup.jar org.eclipse.core.launcher.UIMain -application org.eclipse.ui.workbench -ws win32 %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
 </pre>

 </b>

 <h3><a NAME="Styled Text"></a>Styled Text</h3>

 The following API changes have been made to StyledText:
 <p>
 If you are implementing your own StyledTextContent implementation, the semantics of how to handle replaceTextRange have
 changed.  Instead of modifying your content and then sending the TextChangedEvent with how the text was changed, one must now:
 <ol>
 	<li>send the TextChangingEvent (with how the text is to be modified)
 	<li>change your text model content
 	<li>send the TextChangedEvent
 </ol>

 The code changes for this are as follows:
 <ul>
 	<li>renamed:
 	<ul>
 		<li>StyledTextContent.addTextChangedListener -> addTextChangeListener
 		<li>StyledTextContent.removeTextChangedListener -> removeTextChangeListener
 	</ul>
 	<li>new:
 	<ul>
 		<li>TextChangingEvent
 		<li>TextChangeListener, methods to implement
 		<ul>
 			<li>textChanging(TextChangingEvent)
 			<li>textChanged(TextChangedEvent)
 			<li>textSet(TextChangedEvent)
 		</ul>
 	</ul>
 	<li>removed:
 	<ul>
 		<li>All fields of TextChangedEvent, data will be in the TextChangingEvent, differences as follows:
 		<ul>
 			<li>int start;
 			<li>String newText; (vs. replacedText)
 			<li>int replaceCharCount;  (renamed from replace<d>CharCount)
 			<li>int newCharCount;
 			<li>int replaceLineCount; (renamed from replace<d>LineCount)
 			<li>int newLineCount;
 		</ul>
 		<li>TextChangedListener
 	</ul>
 </ul>

 <ul>
 <li>The class RichText has been removed.
 Use com.ibm.swt.custom.StyledText instead.

 <li>
 The class com.ibm.itp.os.ProgramSupport has been deprecated because
 it was a random assortment of helper methods some of which Windows
 specific and could not be implemented on other platforms.
 The functionality has been redistributed as follows:
 <ul>
 <li>ProgramSupport.getWindowSystem - use SWT.getPlatform
 <li>ProgramSupport.isReparentable - use Control.isReparentable
 <li>ProgramSupport.print - RichText no longer exists
 <li>ProgramSupport.getFriendlyName - not used
 <li>ProgramSupport.loadLargeIcon - not used
 <li>ProgramSupport.loadSmallIcon - use Program.getImageData
 <li>ProgramSupport.queryExtension - use Program.findProgram

 <li>ProgramSupport.queryExtensionProgramID - use OLE.findProgramID
 <li>ProgramSupport.queryInsertables - not used
 <li>ProgramSupport.queryRegisteredPrograms - use Program.getPrograms
 <li>ProgramSupport.shellExecute - use Program.launch

 <li>OleClientSite.containsOleInfo has been deprecated - use OLE.isOleFile

 <li>The methods Control.isValidWidget, Widget.isValidWidget and Menu.isValidWidget have been removed.

 <h2>
 <a NAME="Known deficiencies"></a>Known deficiencies</h2>

 <ul>
 <li>
 The support for running Swing and AWT widgets within SWT layouts only works
 on Windows. There are currently significant incompatibilities between the
 way AWT and SWT deal with Motif. There is no workaround at this time.</li>

 <li>
 TableEditors are not notified when the cell they are editing changes its
 dimensions. This can cause them to look odd when the underlying table (or
 one of its columns) is resized while they are open. This occurs on both
 Windows and Linux. In addition, because of the way XWindows handles child
 widgets, it is possible for TableEditors to lose focus on Linux in situations
 where they do not on Windows. Simply clicking on the TableEditor again,
 will return focus to it.</li>

 <a NAME="What's new"></a>What's new in this drop</h2>

 <h3><a NAME="New Classes"></a>New Classes</h3>
 <ul>
 <li><b>SashForm</b>  The SashForm lays out its children in a Row or Column arrangement (as specified
 by the orientation) and places a Sash between the children.
 One child may be maximized to occupy the entire size of the SashForm.
 The relative sizes of the children may be specfied using weights.

 <li><b>StackLayout</b> This Layout stacks all the controls one on top of the other and resizes all controls
 to have the same size and location.  The control specified in topControl is visible and all other controls
 are not visible. Users must set the topControl value to flip between the visible items and the call
 layout() on the composite which has the StackLayout.
 </ul>

 <h3>

 </ul>

 <p><b>***NOTE***</b> There has been some renaming of Interface methods, which will unavoidably
 break code while the rename is being done. In order to make it easier for
 yourself before we rename next week, you might want to do the rename in
 your copy of SWT after you get tomorrow's drop, and fix all breakage immediately.
 <br><b>***NOTE2***</b> in general, you always want to try to use an Adapter
 (when one exists) instead of implementing the corresponding Listener.
 This will insulate you from changes to the interface. Also, we have
 seen cases where an SWT event Listener interface is being implemented
 by a public class. This not only exposes your public class to interface
 changes, but it also forces your public class to bogusly provide the
 SWT Listener interface's methods as your public API. <em>Don't do that.</em>

 <h3>
 <a NAME="Styled Text changes"></a>Styled Text changes</h3>

 <ul>
 <li>StyledText
 <br>
 For those who are implementing StyledTextContent,
 the constructor for the TextChangedEvent class has changed.
 The TextChangedEvent() constructor no longer exists.
 Use the TextChangedEvent(StyledTextContent source) constructor instead.
 <b>NOTE:</b> The parameter to this constructor cannot be null.
 </ul>

 <p><b>These StyledText methods have been renamed:</b>
 <ul>
 <li>StyledText.getSelection() ==> use getSelectionRange() instead
 <li>StyledText.getText(int start, int length) ==> use getTextRange(int,int) instead
 <li>StyledTextContent.getText(int start, int length) ==> use getTextRange(int,int) instead
 <li>StyledText.redraw(int,int,boolean) ==> use redrawRange(int,int,boolean) instead
 <li>StyledText.replace(int start, int length) ==> use replaceTextRange(int,int) instead
 <li>StyledTextContent.replaceText(int start, int length) ==> use replaceTextRange(int,int) instead
 <li>StyledText.setSelection(int start, int length) ==> use setSelectionRange(int,int) instead
 </ul>

 <p><b>These methods have been introduced to maintain SWT API consistency.</b>
 <p>StyledText selection methods used to take (int start, int length) and now the parameters are (int start, int end).
 <p><b> WARNING</b>These names are the same as the old names, BUT the semantics have changed.
 Also note that in the case of setSelection(start,end) the behavior has also changed to be consistent with
 SWT (the selection is made visible):
 <ul>
 <li>StyledText.getSelection() ==> returns Point(start,end)
 <li>StyledText.getText(int start, int end)
 <li>StyledText.setSelection(int start, int end)
 </ul>

 <p>The compiler is not going to point these changes out automatically.
 You can decide whether to use the new "selection range" API with (start, length) semantics,
 or stick with the old method names and change your calling semantics to (start, end).
 We suggest you use the following trick to get the compiler to help you make the changes:
 <ol>
 <li>Make sure you have SWT 0.067 loaded.
 <li>Rename the 3 StyledText methods, getSelection, getText, and setSelection, to getSelection2,
     getText2, and setSelection2.
 <li>You will now have red x's everywhere you called those methods.
 <li>Make the changes (either change to call getSelectionRange/getTextRange/setSelectionRange,
     or change to use "start, end").
 <li>Replace the 3 StyledText methods with the released version.
 </ol>

 <p><b>These deprecated methods have been removed from StyledText:</b>
 <ul>
 <li>StyledText.getCaretLineNumber()
 <li>StyledText.getCaretLocation()
 <li>StyledText.getCaretPosition()
 <li>StyledText.getDelimiter()
 <li>StyledText.getDoubleClick()
 <li>StyledText.setDoubleClick(boolean)
 <li>StyledText.setSelectionForeground (Color color)
 <li>StyledText.setSelectionVisible(boolean visible)
 <li>StyledText.setText(String string, Color colors [], int [] ranges)
 </ul>

 <p><b>These deprecated methods have been undeprecated:</b>
 <ul>
 <li>StyledText.append (String string)
 <li>StyledText.insert (String string)
 <li>StyledText.getLineCount ()
 <li>StyledText.selectAll()
 <li>StyledText.getSelectionCount()
 <li>StyledText.setSelection (int start)
 <li>StyledText.setSelection(Point point)
 </ul>

 <p>The method invokeAction(int) is now public.  You may use this method to support special key
 binding needs like multi-keystroke bindings or macro recording/playback.

 <h3>
 <a NAME="Other highlights"></a>Other highlights</h3>

 <ul>
 <li> The ability to set a Disabled image for use in the Toolbar has been added.
 <li> The ability to create a new gray scale image from a color image has been added.
 <pre>
 	Image grayImage = new Image(getDisplay(), colorImage, SWT.IMAGE_GRAY)
 </pre>
 </ul>

 <h2>
 <a NAME="Known deficiencies"></a>Known deficiencies</h2>

 <ul>
 <li>
 The support for running Swing and AWT widgets within SWT layouts only works
 on Windows. There are currently significant incompatibilities between the
 way AWT and SWT deal with Motif. There is no workaround at this time.</li>

 <li>
 TableEditors are not notified when the cell they are editing changes its
 dimensions. This can cause them to look odd when the underlying table (or
 one of its columns) is resized while they are open. This occurs on both
 Windows and Linux. In addition, because of the way XWindows handles child
 widgets, it is possible for TableEditors to lose focus on Linux in situations
 where they do not on Windows. Simply clicking on the TableEditor again,
 will return focus to it.</li>
 </ul>
