Hi Stephen,

I attached the Java part, how we made VTK work with SWT. We created the 
GL context in SWT and passed the handle to VTK. RenderCreate is a native 
function we added to VTK. I will have look to find the code for that. We 
also had the same for GTK-SWT. I will search my archive ;)

It work pretty well. The only drawback we had was that we couldn't 
activate AA for the Canvas with SWT:

Best,
   Kristian
