Is it possible to have the subject?
Instead of showing the actual content of a cell, to have some dots there.

I know that is possible to have password style in Text class, but I want
the same thing in a table cell (or row, or column) if it's possible.

Not supported by Table directly. Since the purpose of the echo char is to
not show what the user is typing, it does not make sense in the Table
because Table is read only. You could place a Text editor in the cell.

Is the table just going to display the values or are you using a cell
editor?

If you're just displaying it, wrap the Table around a TableViewer and create

a ITableLabelProvider that will only display echo chars for that cell.

If you're using a cell editor, and I assume you will use a TextCellEditor,

you can call getControl() and cast the value to Text, and then set the echo
char.

Hope this helps.

Use the SWT.PASSWORD style when the Text is created to get the right echo
character for the platform.
