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?
