getClass().getName() returns org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite [message #129375]

Hi,

If I generate the following code when dropping from Palette :

composite = new MyComposite(this,SWT.NONE);
composite.setText(getClass().getName());

the getClass().getName() returns org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite
instead of the current editing class. If I save the file, and reopen,
it returns the correct fully qualified classname.

It is because the current editing class never gets compiled? Thanks.
Is there anyway I can get the name of the current classname
programatically? Thanks.

Yup, since it wasn't compiled yet, it used the super class instance
instead, which was compiled. It was compiled the next time so that it
could use it. There is no way to force this.
