Hi,
I'm investigating the creation of custom widgets and
follow roughly the pattern described in the article
"Creating Your Own Widgets using SWT" by Steve
Northover & Carolyn MacLeod. But instead of using
my own layout manager I use Grid Layout. Surpisingly
the Basic Widget (class TextButton) does not show up
properly within the custom composite (class Statusbar).
If I change the TextButton with a Label (commented out
in the code below) everything is OK. Do I miss any
constraint, a silly bug, or something else ? Platform
Win XP, Eclipse 3.1M3.
tia, Peter

Statusbar.computeSize is bad. Because Statusbar is using a GridLayout to
manage the size and position of its children, you should not override
computeSize in Statusbar. The default behaviour is to defer to GridLayout
to provide the computed size and this is the correct behaviour. If you were
not using GridLayout then there is still a problem with the implementation
of Statusbar.computeSize - the parameter"width" is actually "wHint" which is
just a hint and can have the value SWT.DEFAULT (-1). You are returning a
width of -1 in this case which is not good.
