How do you define 'static'? No animations? Or no interpretations such as rotation, zoom and et cetera?

Static means that my document is not Dynamic (i.e. it is simply for visualization, and takes no benefit from interaction and or animation, nor event dispatching from the SVG).


This will likely be an issue, so thanks for the heads up.

I guess that this kind of issues are the ones the folks at holongate try to fix.


I planned on coding this purely in SWT, not using any AWT if I can help it. And yes, the Mac is one of the target platforms. Its a game, and we all know the Mac could stand to have a few more games around.

You can program everything in SWT, DOM and Java2D (for affineTransforms, etc.) There is no need to go to AWT for all your other application widgets.

If what you want to leverage out of Eclipse is the RCP framework, i may suggest (with no intention to start a dispute) you may take a look at the netbeans RCP. With the new NeatBeans 5.0 they have gone a long way to make it easier and more accessible to build RCP applications. You no longer have to fight the cluster_harness nightmare, now it is fully integrated with the IDE, you you can focus in developing, instead of deploying.

If SVG is fundamental for your application, and the Mac is an important target, then the balance indicates to use Netbeans. In my company we have made this shift already, since we need to be able to deploy on Mac, and our app is SVG based.

Andres.

How adaptable is the Batik toolkit to working in SWT-based applications? I have seen a project by Holongate.org to build a 'bridge' to do this, but from the people that know Batik best... what does and does not work in SWT?

I haven't investigated deeply, so the limitations/incompatibilities may be limited to the Java2D <--> SWT interaction.

If anyone has any insight, I'd be glad to hear it.
