Description Tom Krauss CLA 2011-05-10 11:58:28 EDT 
Build Identifier: 3.6.2

When one tries to open Window Builder on a Swing user interface containing 3rd party beans (custom beaninfos and custom images), Eclipse will hang due to an endless loop in method org.eclipse.wb.internal.core.utils.ui.ImageUtils.convertToSWT, which tries to convert the gif file for the bean to an SWT image.

Happens with WindowBuilder Plugin version 0.9.0.r36x201105061148.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the WindowBuilder Designer on a Swing user interface (e.g. empty JDialog)
2. Open "Import Jar Archive" from the WindowBuilder Item Palette and import a Jar archive containing some custom beans with custom BeanInfo images (I can provide a sample Jar if you need one)
3. Select one of the beans to add it to the palette. 
-> Eclipse hangs forever.

Yes, please attach sample jar.

Created attachment 195370 [details]
Test Project for reproducing the bug

Here is what to do with the attachment:
- unzip and import the sample project into Eclipse
- open the class de.gebit.sample.Sample Dialog in Window Builder
- goto the palette, open popup menu to "Add Component..."
- in the dialog, that comes up, choose class de.gebit.beans.GImagePainter
-> Eclipse hangs
