Adding other controls to a ToolBar [message #902711] Mon, 20 August 2012 04:00 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
I must admit upfront to being pretty clueless about Java and SWT. In an
attempt to learn I'm trying to port a small C# program and immediately
found the GUI construction...erm...interesting.

So, is it possible to shoehorn other controls into a ToolBar (in this
case a label and a progress bar) or do I just place these controls over
an equal-sized separator in the toolbar to simulate the effect?

It's a fixed size window, so that makes the layout simpler at least.

public static void main(String[] args) {

    Display display = new Display();

    Shell shell = new Shell(display);

    ToolBar toolBar = new ToolBar(shell, SWT.HORIZONTAL);

    Combo combo = new Combo(toolBar, SWT.READ_ONLY);

    ToolItem comboItem =

        new ToolItem(toolBar, SWT.SEPARATOR);

    comboItem.setControl(combo);

    comboItem.setWidth(64);

    new ToolItem(toolBar, SWT.SEPARATOR);

    for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++) {

        ToolItem item = new ToolItem(toolBar, SWT.PUSH);

        item.setText("Push " + i);

    }

    toolBar.pack();

    shell.pack();

    shell.open();

    while (!shell.isDisposed()) {

        if (!display.readAndDispatch()) display.sleep();

    }

    display.dispose();

}

You might want to consider using the WindowBuilder feature for eclipse
