SWT splashscreen

[johnjohn]

Hi,

I'm trying to do a splashscreen with SWT. I read a lot of examples but
they are using swing...

I don't have a problem to make appearing my window but I don't know
how to proceed for closing it after a given time.

There is no SWTTimer as with swing and if I use a display.asyncExec,
it work fine but after I get a error in relation with the thread.

Thanks.

Maybe it's your search string, try this one..

I wrote an AWT based splashscreen the
other day and had no problem with it.

My approach was
1) get the time
2) start a trhead
3) in run, check the time and destroy when appropriate.

Easy peasy.
