XWT - creating object inside a composite of a component [message #990620]

Hi..

When I use the SWT Designer I can add a component to a composite that is inside a class, the SWT Designer create my component above a method, for example getComposite().

Can I do this in XWT Designer? Or it just create the component inside the other component?

To be more clear, I have a component that has a composite inside, I add this component in the toolkit and it's working. I want to create a button(using the XWT Designer) inside this component, but I want that this button stay inside the composite of the component.

Anyone can help me?

Can you do that using XWT by hand?

If yes, please post some sample code indicating exactly what you are trying to do.

Hi Eric,

so this is my problem, I can't do using XWT by hand or in Designer...
Before use XWT I'm using SWT Designer, and it's working... by hand or using WB...

There is the image of the tree, in Designer:

There is the java code: (FWHorizontalBox is mine component, see that the parent is getComposite(), that I want to do in XWT)

public test(Display display) {

super(display, SWT.SHELL_TRIM);

setLayout(new FillLayout(SWT.HORIZONTAL));

FWHorizontalBox horizontalBox = new FWHorizontalBox(getComposite(),SWT.NONE);

createContents();

}

Unfortunately, WindowBuilder is limited to the capabilities of XWT itself. If you can't write it by hand using XWT, WB won't be able to do so either.
