Description Emmanuel CLA 2004-07-07 01:18:13 EDT 
MDI problem in SWT compelled me to use Decorations.
The decorations, that can be substituted for MDI, has lot of Bugs.

1.Docking of child windows is not possible.
2.Child window is not focused always from the parent.
3.Child windows are not true child windows of the parent and hence the control 
over them is programmatically lost.
4.Child windows move inconsistently within the parent(after maximizing).

As a whole, it doesnt act as true MDI.
Is there any way to obtain Multiple Document Interface in SWT ??
