Hi,
Welcome to JavaRanch!
BIRT, like all of the Eclipse platform, uses SWT, a non-standard windowing toolkit with all of its own native methods. Although there are some fairly fragile tool for letting Swing components be used in a SWT application on some platforms, I'm not aware of the reverse being possible. Even if it were, you'd have to drag most of the Eclipse platform in: BIRT, like any Eclipse plugin, would expect the platform to be there.
It would be much easier if you would build your application itself on the Eclipse platform!
