It’s entirely
possible… it’s just that some designers make API, or at least paradigm
assumptions about the GUI library they design with, and sometimes those
assumptions are incompatible with an alternate GUI library. I’m not sure this is the case in the
mentioned systems, but it’s the only real impediment. Building a natively SWT-aware
builder is not particularly hard compared with another GUI
library.

Can sombody please explain to me why it
is not possible to build a GUI designer in SWT.
I've been following the
discussions here, but I haven't realy heard an answer. On the properties
pattern thing. Does setData(String key, Object value) solve your
problem? And since SWT is native widgets How does Visual Studio do it?
