The Standard Widget Toolkit (SWT) is the windowing toolkit of the Eclipse™ development environment and the
Eclipse Rich Client Platform (RCP).
An Eclipse RCP application with JViews Maps is implemented
in the same way as a Swing application. Additional considerations

Installing the JViews runtime plug-in
Rogue Wave® JViews
Maps provides jar files in the form of a pre-packaged Eclipse
plug-in. The name of this package is ilog.views.eclipse.maps.runtime.
In order to install the Eclipse plug-ins,
you need to install from the local site as shown below.
For Eclipse 3.7 and later:
- Launch your Eclipse installation.
- Go to Help/Install New Software.
- Add a new local site: Click Add, then Local, and then specify the directory <installdir>/jviews-framework89/tools/ilog.views.eclipse.update.site
- Select the features you want to install, and then click Next.
In your applications, you need the ilog.views.eclipse.maps.defense.runtime
plug-in and its dependencies:
- ilog.views.eclipse.maps.runtime
- ilog.views.eclipse.diagrammer.runtime (optional)
- ilog.views.eclipse.framework.runtime
