How to make and save a screenshot of my gui application [message #1222114]

Hi,
Is there a java/swt command to save the current view in a file (screenshot)?
For example i display results on my windowbuilder application gui and at the same time the application saves a screenshot.

Best regards

You can use the GC.copyArea() API in SWT to achieve this. See http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.swt.git/tree/examples/org.eclipse.swt.snippets/src/org/eclipse/swt/snippets/Snippet215.java for an example which shows how to use the API to take a screenshot.
