Shell#pack() (or more properly, Composite#pack()) uses a recursive algorithm to layout all widgets in the most compact way possible using the layout manager and shrinks the size of the Composite (or shell) to match that minimum size. Be forewarned, however, that this method won't give you the perfect size and layout for your Shell. Very often, your Shell will be sized incorrectly by pack() since it does take the minimum size allowed by the layout and widget configuration.

It's basically the same as JFrame#pack()
