--------------------------------------
Hi Roger, this issue should be resolved (and merged in trunk), right ?
> Some renderers were not calling their "toString" methods in the "render"
> methods

> Key: PIVOT-922
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-922
> Project: Pivot
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: wtk
> Affects Versions: 2.0.3
> Environment: All
> Reporter: Roger Whitcomb
> Assignee: Roger Whitcomb
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: renderer, wtk
> Fix For: 2.0.4, 2.1
>
>
> Most Renderer instances have the required "render" method and also a
> "toString" method. Since "render" can be complicated it is tempting to
> create a subclass and just change the "toString" method to do something
> special with the text (like using something besides "Object.toString()" to
> get the proper text). But, many of the renderers don't call the
> "toString(Object)" method from "render", but instead duplicate the logic in
> there. This renders the subclass approach ineffective. And there is no
> particular reason for having the "toString" method except for it to be used
> in "render".
