Java Desktop application: SWT vs. Swing





"requires native libraries for each supported system"





Does it mean that i have to rebuild my project for each OS, switching each time the libraries to the corresponding target's native library? Or is there a way to actually put every libraries required by different OS in the same project?





I just started Java, as my second language, sorry if this question look stupid.

    No, you don't need to rebuild your project. You just need to make sure you bundle the correct SWT native library for each platform (.dll, .so etc.) with your program -- SWT has built-in logic to determine the platform and load the correct library.

Slow Android emulator

By User
I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?

Java Urban Myths

By User
Along the line of C++ Urban Myths and Perl Myths : What are the Java Urban Myths? That is, the ideas and conceptions about Java that are common but have no actual roots in reality . As a Java programmer, what ideas held by your fellow Java programmers have you had to disprove so often that you've come to believe they all learned at the feet of the same drunk old story-teller? Ideally, you would express these myths in a single sentence, and include an explanation of why they are false.
