Class GridData

java.lang.Object
  extended by
org.eclipse.draw2d.GridData
public final class GridData
extends java.lang.Object

GridData is the layout data object associated with GridLayout. To set a GridData object into a Figure, you use the setConstraint() method of GridLayout to map the Figure to its layout GridData.

There are two ways to create a GridData object with certain fields set. The first is to set the fields directly, like this: 

 GridData gridData = new GridData();
 gridData.horizontalAlignment = GridData.FILL;
 gridData.grabExcessHorizontalSpace = true;
 
 // associate the figure to the GridData object
 myGridlayout.setConstraint(myFigure, gridData);
The second is to take advantage of convenience style bits defined by GridData: 
 GridData gridData = new GridData(GridData.HORIZONTAL_ALIGN_FILL
 		| GridData.GRAB_HORIZONTAL);

NOTE: Do not reuse GridData objects. Every child in the parent Figure that is managed by the GridLayout must have a unique GridData object. If the layout data for a Grid member in a GridLayout is null at layout time, a unique GridData object is created for it.
