If you're asking if there's a control for showing any file with any arbitrary type, then no this doesn't exist. You can use the Program class to look up the viewer/editor associated with a file type, and if one is found then you can launch it externally with the content to show (Program snippets: http://www.eclipse.org/swt/snippets#program ). If this is not what you were asking then please follow up.

I see, so you mean the native file dialog, but in a Control rather than in a stand-alone OS dialog? If so then no, this does not exist. I think it was previously requested in bugzilla, but could not be implemented due to lack of native support. Implementing this functionality yourself is reasonably straight-forward though, and there's an swt example you can look at that does this. It's called FileViewer and it's in the swt examples download. For instructions on getting the swt examples see http://www.eclipse.org/swt/examples.php . If for some reason you have problems getting the examples then the two classes that make up this example are directly accessible via the links below, you'll just need to hack them to not depend on the additional external strings and icons that are usually part of the example. http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/org. eclipse.swt.examples/src/org/eclipse/swt/examples/fileviewer /FileViewer.java http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/org. eclipse.swt.examples/src/org/eclipse/swt/examples/fileviewer /IconCache.java HTH, Grant <lqb@yomolo.com> wrote in message news:ia45c3$li1$1@news.eclipse.org... > Sorry to explain me so so sooo confusing...
