Is the Visual Editor for SWT an official release? [message #74553]

Has the Eclipse Visual Editor for SWT been officially released yet?

I can only use Swing components via the Visual Editor which was installed
via the HELP->SOFTWARE UPDATES->FIND AND INSTALL menu. The swt.jar has
been added to my project.

According to eclipse.org/swt:

"The SWT component contains the extensions to the Java core component. It
provides the editing functions that are specific to the SWT classes. (At
this time this component does not yet exist)."

The downloadable daily build of the Visual Editor has SWT support?

Should I be concerned about using the Visual Editor with SWT for a major
project?

Thanks,

The Visual Editor has officially supported SWT development on Windows
and Linux/GTK since version 1.0. The webpage you quoted is outdated.
Thanks for pointing that out.
