Hi all,
I want to check if a text box is read only, in other words, if it is not editable.
I am trying to use this:
bot.text().isEnable();
But, even if the text is not editable, this method returns true.
Then, to check it out, I tried this:
bot.text().setText("just a test");
And, for my surprise, the string "just a text" was inserted in the text box.
So, how can I check if this text box is not editable? And SWTBot can edit fields that are not editable?
Thanks in advance
Victor

Hmmm, I believe a method isReadOnly() would be a nice addition to
SWTBotText API, but for now, you can do:
SWTUtils.hasStyle(bot.text().widget, SWT.READ_ONLY);
> And SWTBot can

The style READ_ONLY on a Text does not prevent you from programmatically
setting its text (otherwise how would UI programmer do to set the text
of a Text widget??). And that's what setText() does. If you had used
typeText() instead, it would not have setted the text.
(wow, too many "text" in this paragraph...)
Hope this helps.
