<h1>Developing SWT applications using Eclipse</h1>

<p>While SWT is integrated as part of the Eclipse plug-in API, for standalone
application development it is best to develop against the SWT standalone
download.  This document will help you get set up.</p>

<p>First, download the .zip of SWT for your platform from the
<a href="/swt/">SWT homepage</a>.</p>

<p>The SWT .zip file can then be imported into your workspace. In the
<i>File</i> menu, choose <i>Import</i> and select the
<i>Existing Projects Into Workspace</i> wizard.
(In newer versions of eclipse, you can find <i>Existing Projects Into Workspace</i>
in the <i>General</i> category).</p>

<p>Direct the wizard to the location where you downloaded the .zip file.
This will create a project called <i>org.eclipse.swt</i> in your
workspace.</p>

<p>Your Java projects can then add the SWT project as a dependency.
Open the properties dialog of your Java project, and on the <i>Java
Build Path</i> page, include the org.eclipse.swt project.</p>

<p>With the SWT project as a dependency, you can now benefit from
Eclipse features such as the Javadoc view and code assist.</p>

<p>Now you can run any main class in your project by selecting the class and then selecting
<i>Run &gt; Run As &gt; Java Application</i></p>
