In the examples for DWT there are a couple different ways for GUI startup ,
such as making a class inherit from Composite, and showing the GUI via a
static method showGUI()  ( dummyeclipse.d ) , and the other way of creating
the Shell in main () and passing it to your main GUI class.

Not having done any real SWT programming im wondering which method is preferable ?

Some example was ported from Java which was generated by GUI Builder. And it is always inherit from Composite or Shell or Dialog in order to parse the initGUI() or initComponents() method to show the GUI desinger.

Do you think we shloud pressure swt-designer into creating code for DWT also -- or wait till DWT's a little more solid ?

Also not sure if you know this , but your email has 666 in it, which in the christian faith is 'The Mark of the Beast', represents the devil.

Actually Ive heard lots of theories as to what this means but the most popular is that the Roman Ruler at the time ( Nero Ceasar ), in its seven letter hebrew name adds up to 666 ( 50+200+6+50+100+60+200 )  . All hebrew letters have a numeric value.  Theres a whole jewish sub culture that tries to find hidden meanings in words, called Gematria .  This was recently popularized by the Darren Arronfsky's movie PI -- where the true name for god lies in PI .


Anyway you might consider removing that or risk offending some one :).

I don't wanna offend anybody at all.


6,8,9 are lucky numbers in Chinese. 6 means able and successful.
8 means earning money and get rich. 9 means long time and long life.
Some Chinese even spent much money to gain an auto license or mobile
phone number which ends with 6,8 or 9.

And more, the pronunciation of 6 in Chinese is the same as "liu". And the email address without numbers is occuppied by somebody else. That is why I choose this as my e-mail address.

> I don't wanna offend anybody at all.

Yes thats what i figured :).  Just wanted to let you know.

Passenger seats on airplanes also tend to skip the 13th row, even if your ticket says "row 13"!  Of course, for some planes, this is located next to the lavatory anyway, so I guess it really is unlucky.
