Hi there !
I want to do a small app based on JFace and SWT. It probably will be a
small RCP.

Look at this image :
http://www.mashby.com/images/posts/fantasy_palm_desktop.png

You can see a calendar widget with tabs "day", "week", "month", "year".
Have you any idea how can I build a JFace or Swt widget like this ?
Probably with some Table or TableViewer but if you have some advices...

Have a nice day

David

Hi,

yes there's something like that available. Take a look at
jface.databinding.examples project there's a such a control (I can't
remember the package and name at the moment).

I think it maybe gets integrated into neblua in future because its
somehow untrelated to databinding.

You can fetch the source from directly from CVS.
URL: cvs.eclipse.org
Directory: /home/eclipse

This is being actively developed for an internal project that is a little
like Palm Desktop and it isn't very stable right now. It supports day/week
mode at this time. There's a "month mode" calendar in the works. The
developers (myself and David Orme, mainly) would appreciate any comments and
bug reports.

Hi David,
I have just checkout this examples and it seems it is exactly what I was
looking for.
I'll try it a bit and make some comments.

When you said "internal" project, is it a new project from the eclipse
foundation ? Can we have more informations about that ?

I'm collecting some informations (technicals, ideas, etc) to work on a
small Palm desktop written in java.

No, not for Eclipse Foundation. It's for an enterprise client that plans to
use it internally to their organization.

Ok.
Do you plan to always release your "calendars" widgets open source ?
After testing, I'll probably use them into my apps.

Always is a big word :-) But yes, all work I foresee us doing on these
calendar controls will be contributed to Eclipse. Naturally, we'd like to
have other developers help us maintain and improve them. If we made the
code proprietary we'd have to do it all ourselves.
