SWT/AWT Bridge Workaround? [message #106917]

We have an Eclipse RCP package that required AWT components (such as
Grappa) so we used the package org.eclipse.swt.awt.SWT_AWT.

This apparently is no longer operational in RAP, but we absolutely need to
have Grappa working in our online RAP version of our product. Is there a
workaround to this problem?

I assume Grappa is the AT&T graph drawing package (haven't heard of
it before).
Depending on how much user interaction your graphs require, you
could create them as images on the server-side and deliver these to
the client.

Hi,

we are did some investigations using a SWT_AWT brigde approach based on
the SwingWt http://swingwt.sourceforge.net/ library for example to see
what's possible. So in principle it is possible to exchange the SWT core
in SwingWT with RWT and get it working to some extend. So you may have a
look at it and see if this could be something that helps you.

Ciao
Frank
