Description Deepak Azad

Build Identifier: I20091210-1301

I am trying to set copyCount of a org.eclipse.swt.printing.PrinterData object to 1, but the value is not set to 1 (it dosent change) . If I try to set it to any value greater than 1 things work as expected (the value is changed correctly).

I am trying to do this in org.eclipse.jface.text.TextViewer.print(StyledTextPrintOptions)

Reproducible: Always

The API says:

	 * Note that this field may be controlled by the printer driver
	 * In other words, the printer itself may be capable of printing
	 * multiple copies, and if so, the value of this field will always be 1.

Now, this (i.e. 1) is what we see in the data that we get back from the printer dialog, however, it is not specified what happens if we set the value before passing it to the dialog. Also, it seems very strange that values > 1 are honored but 1 is not.

Also, "the value of this field will always be 1." should be changed to something like: "in that case the value set by the PrintDialog will be 1".

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
