I've been creating application that needs to draw curved lines.
Since there is no built-in GC support for drawing curved lines, I am
estimating the curve using the java.awt.geom classes::

import java.awt.geom.*;
....
CubicCurve2D curve = new CubicCurve2D.Double(x0,y0, x1,y1,x2,y2,x3,y3);
PathIterator itr = curve.getPathIterator(null, .1f);
float array[] = new float[2];
int last[] = null;

while (!itr.isDone()) {
itr.currentSegment(array);
int x = Math.round(array[0]);
int y = Math.round(array[1]);

if (last != null) {
gc.drawLine(x,y,last[0],last[1]);
}
last = new int[] { x, y}; itr.next();
}

The problem is that some curve look pretty bad since there is no
antialiasing support. I see that
the following bug has been filed. Just incase it doesn't get fixed does
anyone have a suggestion for
drawing a smoother curve.

As AWT Java 2D supports anti aliasing, you could use Java 2D with the
org.eclipse.swt.awt.SWT_AWT bridge.
