Do NOT use Personal Profile if you're attempting to create an SWT app. The
current implementation of PPro uses a stripped down subset of an old version
of SWT which is ahead of the swt jar you're really trying to use in the
path. Ideally, you should run SWT using Foundation.

Stef,
Thanks for your reply. I will investigate using Foundation and the
differences between Personal Profile. I'll need to make sure the rest of my
app (using JDBC and HTTPConnection) doesn't break.
For now, I was able to get it working, at least part of it. It wasn't
pretty.
What I did was add the contents of swt.jar to ppro-ui.jar (copy to desktop,
unjar,swt, add to ppro-ui, copy back to PPC). I had tried various
permutations of putting swt.jar in my application directory and in the java
ext directory. Apparently, ppro-ui.jar was superceding. I wouldn't be at all
surprised (in fact, I hope) if there is a better way.
This worked with the smaller ppc jar which uses swt-win32-3138.dll. I was
able to load the Table widget. However, still no Browser widget.
Since then, I've downloaded eSWT to get Browser functionality. I've got it
sort of working (the widget displays but text is not showing up). I put the
eswt-converged.jar into the PPC J9 ext directory and didn't have to go
through any of the aforementioned craziness. But I will be looking at using
Foundation if that's the correct approach. I'm in some new territory and
there's much to sort out (SWT, JDBC, HSQL, RMI/HttpConnection, etc).

Using Foundation is absolutely the right approach.
In the meantime, as a (better) workaound you can put the SWT jar ahead of
Personal Profile using the following:
-Xbootclasspath/p:swt.jar
The 'p' prepends whatever you list to the bootclasspath. Therefore, you're
copy of SWT supercedes what's included in PPro. This may break PPro, but
then I would hope you're not trying to use AWT at the same time in your app.

ok, ok,ok I'll use Foundation. I promise.
eSWT seems very promising right now.
Thanks for your help.
