| <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> | |
| <h3>Running the Example Launcher</h3> | |
| <p> | |
| From the Window menu, select Show View --> Other. | |
| In the Show View dialog, expand SWT Examples and select the SWT Example Launcher view. | |
| A view containing a list of examples will appear in your current perspective. | |
| Select an example from the list. A brief description of the example is displayed. | |
| Click on the Run button to launch the example. | |
| </p> | |
| <h3>Details</h3> | |
| <p>The example launcher view contains a tree list, a text area, and a button. | |
| The tree list contains a list of all the SWT examples you can choose | |
| to run. When an example is selected from the tree, the text area | |
| displays a short description of the example. The selected example can | |
| be launched by clicking on the Run button. Standalone examples are run in the | |
| same thread as the workbench's UI but they are not integrated into the perspective. | |
| The launcher invokes the <code>open()</code> method of the standalone example. | |
