[The Java Posse] Re: what you think about SWT on desktop

2009-11-02 Thread Mario Camou
The big problem I see with SWT is the native parts (DLL, .so, etc), which means that an SWT app can't be easily deployed, for example, through WebStart or as an applet (without having to preinstall shared libs). That is a killer for some range of apps (one of which I'm working on right now). Of

If you're having problems, check the file: /Applications/Netbeans/your version of Netbeans.app/Contents/Resources/NetBeans/etc/netbeans.conf There's a variable in there called netbeans_jdkhome. If unset, it will grab whatever your default JDK is. You might have it set to the 1.6 JDK, set it back
