Hi RAP Team,

I think it should be cool if RAP could define FormToolkit#paintBorder(Composite parent) with empty code to manage easily single sourcing. For RAP FormToolkit#paintBorder is not very important but for RCP it's very important to call it otherwise you will have problems with Text border.

Regards Angelo

This actually appears to be quite a problem with WindowBuilder 1.1.0. Every time I try to modify something form related. I end with WindowBuilder failing due to it trying to call this method.

This is causing problems for us as well. I can imagine why it will not be implemented but what could be a workaround? 

Maybe delegate to your own toolkit and use reflection / exception handling to catch the missing method?
