Re: [platform-swt-dev] How tall is the empty String?

[Silenio_Quarti@xxxxxxx]

Both points in the testcase below should have the same
height. If this is not true on any platform, log a PR
against it.

import org.eclipse.swt.*;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.*;
import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.*;

public class C {
 
        public static void  main(String[] arg) {
                Display display = new Display();
 
                GC gc =  new GC (display);
                Point p1 = gc.stringExtent("");
                Point p2 = gc.stringExtent("T");
                gc.dispose();
 
                display.dispose(); 
 
                System.out.println(p1);
                System.out.println(p2);
        }

}

This is a philisophical question, but I thought I would ask it just to be
sure

If I have a GC and call:
Point p = gc.getTextExtent("");

Will I always get back 0,0?  I think that's wrong, I think it has height,
but no width.  Will all platforms return 0,0?
