This is the summary of a nice thread spotted on eclipse.platform.rcp. The initial question was I am constantly having to deal with resistance from my developers, which mostly boils down to resistance to SWT, and hesitance from peers in the company. There are compelling arguments to counter nearly every criticism that I've encounted. However, I'm having difficulty with one question, has anyone else based a non-IDE product on Eclipse?. A few answers later, boy do we have some nice eye candy to show !
