I have just learned SWT in an afternoon from this book, but did have the advantage of being reasonably proficient with Swing. I was provoked to write a review as I thought that one of th existing reviews was unfair in saying that the code examples did not work. I was happy to provide my own ico files etc. and would not have expected these to be provided by the author, and the examples worked for me. I typed them into an Eclipse IDE rather than downloading them from the O'Reilly site. I then checked out where SWT is today and there are now quite a few more widgets than described in the book, but at least I came away with a new skill set in a remarkably short time and I am grateful to Tim Hatton for that. |
