Description Fabian Henniges CLA 2012-11-13 05:00:50 EST 
SWT TableColumn uses header width for calculation of overall width. 
Independent of visible flag. 

RWT TableColumn checks if header is visible before taking it into account. 

The RWT approach seems to be the appropriate approach but differs from the "leading" SWT counterpart. 

To be compatible with SWT behaviour the RWT check in TableColumn#getPreferredWidth() should be removed.

Fixed in master with commit 7260a98cbe0ea97b22c149a11f506ca67848cb2a. The same issue is fixed in TreeColumn as well.
