How to load font from InputStream in SWT?

问题:

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?

Not great but you can always write the stream to a temporary file, and use the available method.
