Re: [ecf-dev] Google Summer Of Code ideas

Hi,

- is it possible to make SWT "secondary" output to some user-provided
framebuffer class, register some redrawing listener for a whole desktop,
even when non-SWT window is focused?

when non-SWT window is focused?
I think either one or both of the above is possible by adding the
appropriate listeners and filters on the parent Display.
Thanks. I've posted some question on swt-dev, as Scott recommended.
Haven't received answer yet.
However, I did some quick test-code with Display's listeners/filters. It
seems that it is impossible to get events from other windows (somehow
reasonable) without any hack. So in pure Java+SWT it seems to be
possible to do a VNC server for Eclipse window. I'm not sure is it
really worth effort.
Regards,
Rem
