Bug 2801 [Dialogs] DCR: ErrorDialog should not always show the error icon (1GJU7TK)
Reported: 2001-10-10 22:43:49 | Status: closed fixed

The class org.eclipse.jface.dialogs.ErrorDialog is used to display errors contained in an IStatus. The problem with the dialog is that it shows an error icon (red/cross) even though IStatus only has warnings or infos. The dialog would be more usable if the icon would correspond to the severity of IStatus and/or the dialog would offer to specify the image type (error, warning, info). NOTES:
