I'm a long-time Eclipse 2.x / Java user that is starting
to use CDT 2.0.2 / Eclipse 3.1.0 and I have a simple problem.

I configure my editor(s) to have a black background with white/
light colors for the foreground. That is working OK.

But I cannot see the text I-beam carat cursor. It is entirely
invisible. I notice that someone else was complaining about
a missing cursor a few weeks back and got no answers.

I tried enabling and disabling the "Use custom carat" option in
the CDT preferences. No change.

Has anyone else seen this?
Any ideas on which config option might solve the problem?
Is this maybe a SWT problem, where the carat should be XOR'ed?

Cheers,
KC

I've determined that my carat becomes visible again if
I disable "Highlight current line".

That works for me. But it does look like there's a bug.
