Using Qt Jambi within Eclipse RCP

Hello,

until today I did some minor things based on the Eclipse Rich Client Platform 
(RCP). I feel quite comfortable with mechanisms such as distributing 
different functionality in different plugins etc. so I could say I like the 
basic architecture of the Eclipse RCP.

What I don't like that much is the UI part: SWT and JFace. There is no good 
and comfortable GUI designer and writing everything by hand gets quite 
complex.

Therefore I wonder whether it is possible to do the GUI things of a RCP 
project using Qt Jambi. I installed the Qt Jambi Eclipse integration and had 
a simple window wwith some buttons etc. within seconds on my screen.

Did anybody do a RCP project using Qt as GUI? Should that work or are there 
problems making this impossible? Are there things I should pay special 
attention to?

Thanks in advance and best regards,
Andreas Bockhold
