First of all, for the sake of clarity: the question is addressed to those who have experience with ERCP, for those who make, say, business applications. The question is not about a general approach to GUI creation.
首先,为了清楚起见:问题是针对那些具有ERCP经验的人,对于那些制作商业应用程序的人。问题不在于GUI创建的一般方法。
I am considering the Eclipse RCP as a platform for desktop applications. I am at the very start (I mean with ERCP), I've read some tutorials, helps, sites etc. and so far I did not understand one thing. What is the usual use of ERCP when it comes to GUI design: is it done by means of some GUI designer or is it usually hand-coded?
我正在考虑将Eclipse RCP作为桌面应用程序的平台。我在一开始(我的意思是ERCP),我已经阅读了一些教程,帮助,网站等等。到目前为止,我还不明白一件事。在GUI设计方面,ERCP的通常用途是什么:它是通过某种GUI设计者完成的,还是通常是手工编码的?
Thank you.

Usually Eclipse RCP applications (which are based of SWT) are hand coded affairs.
通常,Eclipse RCP应用程序(基于SWT)是手动编码事务。

We used the visual editor (VE) in Eclipse, but it was largely written by IBM internally, and they stopped maintaining it so it no longer works (easily) in versions after 3.2.
我们在Eclipse中使用了可视化编辑器(VE),但它主要由IBM内部编写,他们停止维护它,因此它不再适用于3.2之后的版本。
You can have a look at our "internal" page for getting it to work with 3.3.2 (and probably other 3.3.X): http://dev.nepomuk.semanticdesktop.org/wiki/EclipseVisualEditor
您可以查看我们的“内部”页面,以使其与3.3.2(以及可能的其他3.3.X)一起使用:http://dev.nepomuk.semanticdesktop.org/wiki/EclipseVisualEditor
When it works the visual editor can be quite nice, once you get a feel for what code it modifies it is also possible to mix your own code and the generated code.
当它工作时,可视化编辑器可以非常好,一旦你了解它修改了什么代码,它也可以混合你自己的代码和生成的代码。
In the end though, the VE is not powerful enough that you never have to tweak the code by hand, and you'll probably have to learn SWT/JFace by hand anyway. Also, it is slighly unstable, will sometimes crash and will often cause Eclipse to run out of memory.
最后,VE不够强大,你不必手动调整代码,你可能不得不手动学习SWT / JFace。此外,它非常不稳定,有时会崩溃,并且经常会导致Eclipse耗尽内存。
