Embedding Swing/SWT/Native inside JavaFX

[Mario Torre]

But you can probably render the swt widgets into a buffered image.

I'm not sure how swt works, I need to look at it, but it should be possible
to create a proxy peer component that takes care of all the windowing state
and delegate rendering to swing/jfx.

Of course, its a lot of work...

I suggest instead to start developing anything new in javafx and and embed
this into the existing platform.

Cheers,
Mario
