Hi,

I have a table in which the first 2 columns will have a checkbox (created
dynamically as not all rows will have it). I have implemented the
checkbox inside my label provider in the getColumnImage method.

I want the user to be able to click on the rows which have a checkbox and
toggle its state so i have created CellEditors like this:

CellEditor[] editors = new CellEditor[columns.length];
CellEditor[0] = new CheckboxCellEditor(t);
CellEditor[1] = new CheckboxCellEditor(t);

getOrdersTableViewer().setCellModifier(new CellModifier());
getOrdersTableViewer().setCellEditors(editors);

But, when i run my app and click on the first or 2nd column, I get a
unhandled loop exception with the following stack trace:

Any ideas what ive done wrong ? its driving me MENTAL !!! Ive tried to
single step the code but i just cant work out where it blows up. If i
comment out the line setCellModifier, the exception go's away. but if i
put breakpoints in my CellModifier, it never gets called!

java.lang.NullPointerException
