Description Grant Gayed CLA 2004-05-17 16:24:00 EDT 
0517 integration bulid

- retrieve the org.eclipse.swt.gtk package from dev.eclipse.org
- open any of its contained libswt-*.so files in an editor
- type some garbage in, Save it
- select the project, Compare With -> Latest from Head
- in the resulting Synchronize view double-click the changed file and the 
Binary Compare will show "First bytes differ at position X"
- click in this Binary Compare and you'll have (at least on gtk) a massive top-
to-bottom insertion cursor, shown in the next attachment

I'm guessing that this is a Text being created with style SINGLE in order to 
vertically center its contents, but this shows a bad side effect of doing this.

Comment 2 Grant Gayed CLA 2004-05-17 16:55:22 EDT 
I should have mentioned that the libswt-*.so files are in contained folder
os/linux/x86/.

verified there is no cursor and the compare editor is read only.
