Hi People,
I've put out a new MinGW 4.0 gcc/gcj build:
http://www.thisiscool.com/gcc_mingw.htm
This has integrated SwingWT 0.86.1 and SWT 3116.
There seem to be a ton of new Java classes and goodies,
but I've been out of touch and haven't played with
them.
Issues:
- I haven't done DLL builds for this because I
don't have a 4.0 port of the "exceptions across
DLL boundaries patch" that Danny Smith creates.
- some networking and channels stuff seems to be
busted (cf. NetTest in my examples). I've run
this with the same sources and the i686-pc-linux-gnu
native compiler and the test runs okay, so it seems
to be a Win32 issue. Haven't investigated.
- the SwingWT textboxes don't work in my samples.
This was also the case with my September build
and SwingWT 0.84 and doesn't appear to be remedied
in SwingWT 0.86.1. Robin wrote me off list concerning
this (in 0.84) and said:
>Hey Mohan - I know about this and have a note to fix it. It's just that

Enjoy.
