Label on canvas does not display after upgrade [message #223774]

I upgraded from Eclipse 3.4.1 to Eclipse 3.4.2 and now some labels in my
GMF editor do not show up initially. If you click where the label is
supposed to be, it will show up or if you somehow float over the text, the
area that was floated over shows up.

I believe this might be specific to gmf_1.1.3 as I reverted
org.eclipse.draw2d_3.4.2 back to the previous version and also
org.eclipse.gef_3.4.2 to its previous version and the problem persisted.
After reverting gmf_1.1.3 back to its previous version my labels started
appearing again.

Has anyone else experienced this problem? I can provide more information
about the setup of my EditParts and figures but I wanted to see if this is
a known issue - I wasn't able to find an issue that sounded like this.

Hello JSP,

Consider using GMF 2.1.3 with Eclipse 3.2.4 - older versions of GMF were
released based on older eclipse versions and can be working incorrectly with
later eclipses..

Sorry, I think I am using GMF 2.1.3. The versioning is kind of confusing
to me because the feature is called org.eclipse.gmf_1.1.3.v20090122. The
SDK however is called 2.1.3. I believe I am using the latest.

Anyway, I tracked down the change that is causing my problem.

The layout() method of the BorderedNodeFigure changed from this:
protected void layout() {
if (!this.getBounds().equals(getMainFigure().getBounds())) {
getMainFigure().setBounds(this.getBounds().getCopy());
}
// When parent resizes, cause the border items to be relocated.
getBorderItemContainer().invalidateTree();
erase();
}

To this:
protected void layout() {
if (!this.getBounds().equals(getMainFigure().getBounds())) {
getMainFigure().setBounds(this.getBounds().getCopy());
getBorderItemContainer().invalidateTree();
erase();
}
}

Because my main figure was the same size as my bordered node figure, the
invalidateTree() and erase() method were never being called.

Do you think this is a bug?
