Are there any news on SWT on JavaFX?(http://tomsondev.bestsolution.at/2013/12/03/introducing-swt-on-fx/)
I would like to use e4 tool "org.eclipse.e4.tools.context.spy" to check the context.

Hi,

Not really, we have put the work on hold. We've driven it to a point
where it was able to renderer our forum UIs one would have to checkout
what controls the context spy is using (e.g. we currently don't have an
finished implementation of Tree with TreeColumn) so this would certainly
break if used.

Feel free to file a bug report but in case something is missing in
SWTonJavaFX we won't be able to put resources on that without getting
the development sponsored.

Feel free to get in touch with us
http://efxclipse.bestsolution.at/services.html.

Hi Tom

is there already a ticket about adding TreeColumn support to SWTonJavaFX? We are planning to port an e4 application to JavaFX which infrequently makes use of the JFace TreeViewer with multiple TreeViewerColumns so we will come to a point where we need to decide if it makes more sense to port the parts involved to JavaFX or to sponsor this feature. My gut feeling tells me that the later would be the better solution (for a first port anyway), so I will certainly investigate this possibility.

Hi,

I don't think there is.

I often thought about an extra-page at http://efxclipse.bestsolution.at
which would collect Bug-Reports we can not work on but are often
requested by the community/companies.

Something like a market place where people/companies can show up and
donate for a certain feature to be implemented.

First step although is that we have a bugzilla ticket. I encourage
anyone to file tickets, the worst (beside that they are not resolved if
they don't match our internal needs or the one from our paying
customers) that can happen is that we are closing them as dups.
