Hyperlink disabled for messages in Forms [message #70885]

Hi

I'm enjoying playing with RAP immensely. Great work guys. I notice that
with the Forms UI, messages in the Form Header do not display as a
hyperlink but always as only a label. This makes it difficult to see
multiple messages, which were added in 3.3.

Is there a particular reason for this?

See
org.eclipse.ui.internal.forms.widgets.FormHeading#ensureCont rolExists() of
which here's an excerpt from lines 481 - 485 (RAP version 1.0.0):

// messageHyperlink = new Hyperlink(FormHeading.this, SWT.NULL);
messageHyperlink = new Label(FormHeading.this, SWT.NULL);
// messageHyperlink.setUnderlined(true);
messageHyperlink.setText(message);
// messageHyperlink.setHref(messages);

Notice the hyperlink methods have been commented out and label methods
used instead.

Hi Paul,

it looks like we overlooked to use the Hyperlink widget everywhere, once
it was implemented. While adopting Eclipse Forms, the Hyperlink widget
wasn't implemented in the first place and meanwhile a label served as a
placeholder.
Feel free to file a bug report - and attach a patch if you like to - to
track progress on this issue.

Cheers,
Rüdiger

I've submitted bug 216538 and (hopefully) will later attach a patch for it.
