How to load font from InputStream in SWT?

Question

I need to load font ( .otf or .ttf ) file from java Resource or InputStream in SWT.

org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Device.loadFont(String path) allows me ( example ) to load font from font file path (and it works), but there is no corresponding method to load it from any other source.

I was thinking of using java.awt.Font.createFont(int fontFormat, InputStream fontStream) and then building org.eclipse.swt.graphics.FontData and org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Font objects out of AWT java.awt.Font object.

Since I haven't tried that option yet (I don't even know if it works that way) I was just wondering if there are any other options available?

不太好，但是您始终可以将流写入临时文件，然后使用可用的方法。
