Would it be possible to have Composite.toolTipText()
call
Control.getToolTipText() instead of just getting the field? This would
enable us to return dynamic tooltips.
 
IE:
 
public class Composite extends Scrollable {
...
                
String toolTipText (NMTTDISPINFO hdr) {
                
                 if
((hdr.uFlags & OS.TTF_IDISHWND) == 0) {
                
                 
               
return null;
                
                 }
                
                 int
hwnd = hdr.idFrom;
                
                 if
(hwnd == 0) return null;
                
                 Control
control = display.getControl (hwnd);
                
                 if
(control == null) return null;
                
                 return
control.getToolTipText();            
    // <---
                
}
...
}

instead of

public class Composite extends Scrollable {
...
                
String toolTipText (NMTTDISPINFO hdr) {
                
                 if
((hdr.uFlags & OS.TTF_IDISHWND) == 0) {
                
                 
               
return null;
                
                 }
                
                 int
hwnd = hdr.idFrom;
                
                 if
(hwnd == 0) return null;
                
                 Control
control = display.getControl (hwnd);
                
                 if
(control == null) return null;
                
                 return
control.toolTipText;
                
}
...
}
