Style bits for widgets [message #448315]

Given a widget I want to find the style bits associated with the widget. Is
there a convenient way to do it? Every widget has a getStyle() method which
returns an integer. But how do i convert this integer into something like
"SWT.BORDER|SWT.V_SCROLL|SWT.H_SCROLL", essentially all the style bits that
were used to create this widget.

This will be a useful convenience method to find out the default style with
which a widget is created.

Thanks
Avneesh

There isn't a way. You can create a temporary widget, use Widget.getStyle()
and then dispose() it.
