The SWT-FAQ states that Eclipse 3.1 requires GDI+ installed on the OS.
GDI+ comes with Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, on other Windows
platforms you
have to install it manually.
So my questions are:
Is GDI+ generally required by the Eclipse-Plattform?
I am not getting an exception on Win2000 w/o GDI+ before it comes to
anti-aliasing (e.g.) in GEF.
Anyways, how can i detect if the user has this library installed?
Regards, Ingo

The platform does not make any use of the advanced graphics API introduced
in 3.1.
To see if it is available, you can construct a GC, call setAdvanced, and
then query using getAdvanced().

Thank you.
if anyone is interested in the code:
private static int advancedGraphicsEnabled = -1;
public static boolean isAdvancedGraphicsEnabled()
{
if (advancedGraphicsEnabled != -1)
return advancedGraphicsEnabled == 1 ? true:false;
GC gc = new GC(Display.getCurrent());
gc.setAdvanced(true);
advancedGraphicsEnabled = gc.getAdvanced()? 1:0;
gc.dispose();
return advancedGraphicsEnabled == 1 ? true:false;
}
Regards, Ingo
