Yes, the C++ version suffers from the same problem. The idea was: only the 
initial background color was wrong (all zero), but after setting some valid 
color, the cell background color behaved well. Since it fails for you, and 
this is just an example, keeping it bug compatible is preferable. A real 
application would initialize such properties explicitely via proper 
interfaces.
