It's a Defect in SWT_AWT bridge.
Add JTextField on Panel instead JPanel can solve this trouble.

Before:
JPanel jPanel = new JPanel();
JTextField jTextField = new JTextField();
jPanel.add(jTextField );

After encapsulated：
JPanel jPanel = new JPanel();
JTextField jTextField = new JTextField();
Panel panel = new Panel();
panel.add(jTextField);
jPanel.add(panel);

So, the original layout was not affected.

Hi all,

I am a beginner and have a theoretical question: If I want to embemb a JFrame in a RCP aplication does it has to be a simple JFrame and so do I make a bridge like this:

Composite composite = new Composite (parent, SWT.EMBEDDED |
SWT.NO_BACKGROUND);
Frame frame = SWT_AWT.new_Frame (composite);
MyFrame JFrame = new JFrame ();
frame.add (MyFrame);

or can I have in my JFrame: JLists, ScrollPane and JButtons?
is that until now I have been trying for a JFrame with all these components in an RCP View and it is not working.
