In SWT you can use getShell().getDisplay().getPrimaryMonitor().getClientArea();

   final Display display = getShell().getDisplay();  
   final Monitor monitor = display.getPrimaryMonitor();
   final Rectangle rect;
   if (monitor != null) {
      rect = monitor.getClientArea();
   } else {
      // In case we cannot find the primary monitor get the entire display rectangle
      // Note that it may include the dimensions of multiple monitors. 
      rect = display.getBounds();
   }
   System.out.println("Monitor width=" + String.valueOf(rect.width));
   System.out.println("Monitor height=" + String.valueOf(rect.height));
