Aaah.... this is perfectly the thing I would like to have. I have to do
some ground work to embark on this, but certainly an useful approach to try
out.
I am also working on eclipse since last year and i like it. :)

Since I havent used SWT beforehand, just a question: Are operations like
writeline, writecurve are limited in number or there is a pleothra of it. If
the number is large then reading from swf and calling a corresponding SWT
method could be tedious.
