 */
public static void main(String[] args) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    Display display = new Display();
    final Shell shell =new Shell(display);

    shell.setSize(1000,1000);

    shell.open();

    Label label =new Label(shell,SWT.BORDER);

    label.setText("Enter something and click on button");
    label.setLocation(10, 10);
    label.pack();

    final Text text = new Text(shell,SWT.NONE);
    text.setBounds(10, 30, 100, 30);


    Button button = new Button(shell,SWT.PUSH);
    button.setText("OK");
    button.setSize(50, 50);
    button.setLocation(10,75);


    button.addSelectionListener(new SelectionAdapter(){
        public void widgetSelected(SelectionEvent e) {
            System.out.println("your data is "+text.getText());
            shell.dispose();
            }
    });




    while(!shell.isDisposed()){
        if(!display.readAndDispatch())
