practice: how to get the row of a table colored:
As is all too common in Eclipse there is an instanceof
check that gives you what you want instead of something
visible in the API.
In this case it is an instanceof check in TableViewer
that checks to see if your IContentProvider is an
instanceof IColorProvider, and if it is, calls
getForeground and getBackground. When it
calls them it passes the element which in the
case of a Table should be your row object.

hi nobody, thanks for your answer.
How the hell did you get this? did you dive into the whole
tableviewer code?
Other nice things like this?
