request for SWT vs Swing clarification

Hello,

Say, I have a question for you.  I've suggested to my colleagues that we
should more seriously consider SWT, but they are claiming that SWT
requires "explicit memory management" and "widget creation and
destruction".  They seem to be throwing some dust and smoke in the air
in order to avoid the necessary investigation work.

Would you enlighten me or point me to the info for the following:
1) How does SWT compare with Swing in the amount of memory and widget
   creation and destruction?
2) Is SWT equally usable by both Java and C++ code?

Thanks!
