When I invoke SWT from a Swing app, the SWT display appears under the Swing
frame. Additionally, the Swing frame no longer repaints itself. Not good.
Does anyone know if it is possible to make SWT and Swing play together?

My objective is to ultimately covert the Swing application to SWT --- but I
want to do it incrementally, first converting functions that are reasonably
distinct from a user presepective.

Thanks.

Can you be more specific. Does this snippet work for you?
