currently it is only possible to set regular message or error message. an option to display warning messages would be nice.
We inherit this behavior from TitleAreaDialog. Moving to Platform UI as a feature request.
Likely some API that uses an IStatus would be good for this.
I was thinking more about #setWarningMessage(), but any reasonable solution will be ok.
Not on the 3.0 plan
I don't think we should use IStatus here, since there is no "operation" that returns this status. simply providing the TitleAreaDialog behavior should be just enough.
Reopening now that 3.0 has shipped
I stumped into this issue once again. Is a solution foreseable for 3.2?
Unfortunately we have passed API freeze for 3.2. Since this bug is currently at P4, I don't see this happening without someone making a strong case to raise the priority.
This message is part of a mass update on bugs that have been reviewed for several releases, but not fixed. The bug is legitimate, but not a priority. Marking P5. Patches would be entertained.
Ok, I'll propose a patch.
I think the best solution would be to implement a status message presentation that was used consistently on all JFace dialogs. So I'm making this dependent on bug #148085.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
