RAP 2.0 Tooltip on Table(Viewer) column header not working [message #1016440]

Hi again!

After migrating to RAP 2.0, Tooltips on Table headers are not displayed anymore.
They are set on the columns like this:

TableViewerColumn col = ... // create column
col.getColumn().setToolTipText("Some tooltip");

In RAP 1.5 the tooltip is displayed when the mouse cursor hovers over a table column header, in 2.0 only an empty Tooltip pops up.
I debugged TableColumn.class and can see that the correct text is returned to the tables TableColumnLCA.

Anybody else noticed this or is there a workaround if its a bug?
Unfortunately I did not find tooltips on the tables of the RAP demo and can not provide example code.

Thanks,
Tiburon

Hi,
you are completely right. I can reproduce it with RAP from master.
Please open a bugzilla and we will look on it asap.
Thanks,
Ivan
