How can I modify the front or background color of a table cell
programatically. LabelProvider is obviously only responsible to provide
the text to be displayed in a table cell. In my case the underlying
table has a column displaying numeric values. I want to get them
displayed in black when they are positive and in red when they are
negative.
Thanks for any ideas in advance!

It is possible to change the color of whole table row and not individual
cells (is it possible?, I will be glad to hear that). You can implement
the IColorProvider Interface to give color to your table rows.
public class YourViewLabelProvider extends LabelProvider implements
ITableLabelProvider, IColorProvider
{
public String getColumnText(Object element, int columnIndex)
{
//Your getColoumnText() implementation
}
/* (non-Javadoc)
* @see
org.eclipse.jface.viewers.IColorProvider#getForeground(java. lang.Object)
*/
public Color getForeground(Object element)
{
return null; //return forgroud color
}
/* (non-Javadoc)
* @see
org.eclipse.jface.viewers.IColorProvider#getBackground(java. lang.Object)
*/
public Color getBackground(Object element)
{
StockQuote quote = (StockQuote) element;
if ((quote.getVarPercentage() < 0)) {
// Red background if balance negative.
return Display.getCurrent().getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_RED);
}
//Return back ground color
return Display.getCurrent().getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_GREEN);
}
}
