[Sweet-swt-develop] XSWT vs. Sweet XMLEncoder Debate

[Gerald B. <lux...@ya...>]

Hi,

 It looks like the Eclipse Bugzilla Bug #38109
"consider a UI markup language for SWT" online @
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=38109
 and also covered in the XUL News Wire @
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.xul.announce/18
has spawned a debate over the XML format for
describing SWT UIs.

  Before reinventing the wheel, the toothbrush or the
alphabeth may I point out the XUL Alliance site @
http://xul.sourceforge.net

  XUL in case you wondered stands for XML UI Language.
The XUL Alliance site lists dozens of XUL motors that
turn XML into live UIs using Swing, SWT or other UI
toolkits.

  Some XUL motors using SWT include:

 * Luxor - http://luxor-xul.sourceforge.net 
 * JellySWT -
http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/jelly/jellyswt.html
 * Haystack - http://haystack.lcs.mit.edu
 * and others.

  - Gerald
