Can AWT components be place in SWT components, or vice-versa? My guess is no, but I thought I'd ask anyway. It would be nice to have an SWT panel that can be specified as turning control over to a n AWT panel (or JPanel?) so you could use some AWT -written components/widgets in an SWT app without having to rewrite them. If it can't be done yet, maybe If Sun and IBM are getting together on Eclipse/NetBeans/Forte, maybe they'll get SWT and AWT/Swing integrated to some degree.
