Thanks for posting this, it is indeed interesting and gratifying to
see that OS X is still receiving attention for development tools and
updates.

Subject: Eclipse 3.5M5 - The future is Cocoa
I just noticed a new milestone of Eclipse 3.5 which includes the
port of SWT to the Cocoa framework:
<http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/S-3.5M5-200902021535/index.php
>
The 'new and noteworthy' document has this to say:
The future is Cocoa
The Cocoa port of SWT is nearing completion and we have removed
the **early access** warning from the download page. Cocoa is
feature complete, and is the future of Eclipse on the Mac. Please
download Cocoa builds and enter bug reports.
The download is offered in 32 and 64 bit versions. I was able to
run the 64 bit version using Java 6 by adding the following lines
to the eclipse.ini file:
-vm
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.6.0/Home/
bin/java
I performed a few simple tests and it seems a lot less 'rough
around the edges' as previous milestones. Kudos to everyone
involved! The speed at which this as gone from concept to reality
is truly impressive. Cocoa SWT should go a long way towards keeping
Mac OS X a viable platform for Java development.
