Hello i installed Eclipse 3.O.1
i am trying the tutorial "Hello World" for SWT standalone appli
After adding the external swt.jar libraries, as said in the tutorial,
I create a class HelloWorld main,
when I copy paste ;in the main :
Display display = new Display ();
Shell shell = new Shell (display);
Label label = new Label (shell, SWT.CENTER);
the three types are not recognized ?
Display cannot be resolved or is not a type

Is it because I have to add in the path where are the swt libraries ?

Thank you for help

Antoine

Antoine,

Did you add the imports for the swt classes? Specifically:
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.*;

You should be able to use Code Assist and Organize Imports to fix this
problem as well, if the SWT library has been correctly added to your
project.

Hope this helps,

- Jeff

I always use Ctrl+Shift+O to fix missing/duplicate imports.

If you have already added swt.jar to Java Build Path you will need to
import the needed classes to the project, ctrl+shift+o will do it for
you, if asked choose the swt ones, no the awt.
