Please do not use this API, there is a change this API will most likely be removed. We are working on an alternative API. Actually, these are good patches for SWT_AWT. There are situations in the new Plugin2 on the Mac where the applet isn't attached to any NSWindow. I won't reopen the bug; I need a new one for that work.

Also see bug 325795. That one talks about Aero Glass shells but it's related. |
Created attachment 189223 [details] Patch to work around NPEs on startup BuildId: Eclipse 3.7M5 I was experimenting with e4 to use the native shell toolbar on MacOS X. I'd get NPEs in Control#forceFocus(NSView) and ToolItem#setFocus() as view.window() would return null. The attached patches at least avoid the issue.
