No, SWT does not ship the bindings for
GDI+ for the Windows CE port. Last I check GDI+ was not available on the
SDK we use to compile that port.

Is SWT Advanced Graphics supported for Windows
CE?
 
GDI+ is at least partially implemented for
Windows Mobile 5.0 and later (but not any version of the Windows Mobile
Smartphone platform). Despite that, there's no public API for it in the
Microsoft SDKs for Windows Mobile. Some third-party libraries claim to
provide GDI+ wrappers for Windows Mobile, however.

Platforms


SWT Advanced Graphics uses: 

GDI+ on windows platforms 
Cairo on *NIX platforms 
Quartz on the Mac 

GDI+ is not available on Windows 2000, Windows NT 4.0  and Window
98/ME. For these platforms, there is a redistributable package available.

Cairo is available on any system that have GTK 2.8 or higher (RedHat 5).

Quartz/Cocoa is available on all platforms SWT supports.

Hi all-
The SWT docs say that advanced graphics may not be available on certain
platforms. I have a couple questions regarding this:

1) What constitutes the "platform"? Is it a combination of the
OS/jvm/graphics-card?

2) Are there any major platforms that don't work?

I'm basically trying to figure out whether, for most users today(2009),
Advanced Graphics is almost-always, usually, or sometimes available.

Thanks,
-glenn
