Hi Kevin, I opened the bug you asked. Thanks!

Hi Daniel,
You're probably right, plus the javadoc comment for createContents()
reads:
*
This
framework
method
must
be
implemented
by
concrete
subclasses.
Can you log a bug against platform-ui for a proper look please? We'll
be doing a doc pass shortly as part of shipping 3.4.

Hope this is the right place to ask about a
statement
in PreferencePage
documentation, that I suspect to be wrong.
I was reading Eclipse Platform documentation from:
http://help.eclipse.org/help33/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/reference/api/org/eclipse/jface/preference/PreferencePage.html
That states that:
"Subclasses must implement the createControl framework method to supply
the page's main control."
My question:
Shouldn't id be "Subclasses must implement the _createContents_
framework method to supply the page's main control."?
Because createControl is inherited from DialogPage and implements
buttons and decoration. The method then calls the abstract
createContents that people use to fill out the preference page with SWT
controls.
Best regards,
Daniel Ferber
