CSS on Java Swing from Java Code

Question

I am designing a eclipse plugin, where i use Components of Swing and JavaFx. In this I can apply CSS on JavaFX. But i could not apply CSS for Swing components. I was forced to use Swing component for some features of the plugin. So i would like to apply CSS for Swing components too. Is there any api that supports CSS on Swing component?

//This code applies css for javafx components
SwingJavaFxSample.class.getResource("samples.css").toExternalForm();

Please help me in applying css for Swing components too.

You can not use the JavaFX CSS support on Swing controls so to me the question makes no sense. Let me also say that using 3 UI-Technologies together is not really a good idea you'll run into many threading issues (SWT & FX share the same event thread whereas Swing is on another one), ... .

What is the reason you still need Swing? JavaFX can be embedded directly into SWT.
