Parameters that are used to call the setText(String text) Method of a control should be renamed to "text". Not only is this more fitting, but also the SWT Designer has Problems if this parameter is named differently. Naming the parameter any other than "text" results in the Designer not recognizing this parameter as a text property and separately calling the setText(String text) method on a control in the view instead of changing the parameter in the method call of the factory.
Created attachment 135120 [details] Renaming "caption" to "text"
From the technical standpoint: patch looks good and could go into RC1. Christian, Sabine - please confer about legal side of things. My guess is that the short route Figure 2 > Figure 7 > Figure 8 is applicable? http://www.eclipse.org/legal/EclipseLegalProcessPoster.pdf
