Using the Eclipse GUI outside the Eclipse Workbench, Part 1: Using JFace and SWT in stand-alone mode
Although the Eclipse GUI components (JFace and SWT) are often used inside the Eclipse Workbench, they were designed as self-contained frameworks in their own right. Even outside the Eclipse Workbench, JFace's pluggable design still allows you to develop sophisticated GUIs with surprisingly little code. In this "Using the Eclipse GUI outside the Eclipse Workbench" series, you can learn how to build just such a stand-alone application. Part 1 starts with a Hello World example and builds, step by step, into a simple file explorer. Get acquainted with some of the major JFace classes (and a few SWT widgets), along with tips, tricks, and design issues. 		Articles 23 Jan 2003
