Basic Radio button text color question [message #558590]

I have created a radio button and set some text to describe it.

Using the setForeground method does not work to change the color of the text.

Using setBackground does work but the text remains the default color.

Does anyone know how to change the radio button's text color?

final Button radioButton1 = new Button(shell, SWT.RADIO);
   radioButton1.setForeground(Display.getCurrent().getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_RED));
    radioButton1.setText("Java");
    radioButton1.setBackground(Display.getCurrent().getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_WHITE));

Please read the documentation of the setter functions:

* Note: This operation is a hint and may be overridden by the platform.
* For example, on Windows the background of a Button cannot be changed.
