We have a problem right now in Eclipse where a detach window can be resized to 
a small dot. We would like to control the resize so that it stops at a minimum 
size. The detach window does not have a title bar (if it did, we would get this 
behavior for free on windows). The title bar is not there because it was 
confusing to the user seeing what looked like two title bar in a detached 
window.

I could not find any api to do this. There is a resize callback, but at that 
point the shell is already resized. Is it valid in the resize callback to force 
the shell height/width back to a minimum? I've not tried this but I would 
suspect it may have a weird ui effect.

I can't see any other way to limit the size of the shell given the current API.
You can change the size in the resize callback.  There is a slght flash as the 
size bounces but for now that is all that I think you can do.  I will run it 
past Steve when he gets back from OOPSLA.

public static void main (String [] args) {
	Display display = new Display ();
	final Shell shell = new Shell (display);
	shell.setLayout(new GridLayout());
	Button b = new Button(shell, SWT.PUSH);
	b.setText("Open Dialog ...");
	b.addListener(SWT.Selection, new Listener(){
		public void handleEvent (Event e) {
			final Shell dialog = new Shell(shell, SWT.SHELL_TRIM);
			dialog.addListener(SWT.Resize, new Listener() {
				public void handleEvent(Event e) {
					Point size = dialog.getSize();
					if (size.x < 100 || size.y < 100) {
						dialog.setSize(new Point
(Math.max(size.x, 100), Math.max(size.y, 100)));
					}
				}
			});
			dialog.open();
		}
	});
	
	shell.open ();
	while (!shell.isDisposed ()) {
		if (!display.readAndDispatch ()) display.sleep ();
	}
	display.dispose ();
}
