Welcome to DWT
DWT is a port of the Eclipse/SWT (Standard Widget Toolkit) GUI Library from Java to D. The current port is based on SWT 3.3.2. Ports for Win32 and Linux are now available via the links provided at the bottom of this page.
The Entice Design does now support DWT Code generation. See link below.
For those looking for the old DWT based on SWT 3.02 (Windows+phobos only), this has been superceded by DWT 3.3. However, the old version is still available in svn under the "branches" directory. The last dmd compiler version to work with the old dwt was 1.025.
Project Status
DWT 3.3.2 is not yet fully completed, but its already usable. See links Screenshots and the DWT-Samples repository, see below. Missing features are the Browser widget and OLE on windows.
Downloads
Stable versions will be added when available. For now, please access the mercurial repository by following the instructions for AccessMercurialRepo and Installation

Help and support for dwt is available on the digitalmars.D.dwt on the news.digitalmars.com server. Also, realtime support is available on FreeNode in #dwt. See also the Installation Guide
