Installing the JViews runtime plug-in
JViews provides an IlvSwingControl class that encapsulates a Swing JComponent in an SWT widget. It allows you to use IlpNetwork, IlpEquipment, IlpTree, and IlpTable objects in an SWT window, together with other SWT or JFace controls. In this way, it provides a bridge between the AWT/Swing windowing system and the SWT windowing system.
