Hi

I want to use a IColorProvider for my ListLabelProvider but the method
getForeground(Object element) is never called?

viewer.setLabelProvider(new ListLabelProvider());

private class ListLabelProvider extends LabelProvider implements
IColorProvider{
...

public Color getBackground(Object element) {
return null;
}

public Color getForeground(Object element) {
Tia t = (Tia)element;
System.out.println("bla");
if(t.isFinished())
return Display.getCurrent().getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_GREEN);
return null;
}
}// end (local) class ListLabelProvider

I am not getting any output (bla) and the debugger also doesn't stop there.

Hi,

to which viewer is this LableProvider passed to? To a ListViewer? This
is not possible IColorProvider and IFontProvider are only useable for
TableViewer and TreeViewer who have a concept of SWT-Item. As a
workaround you can use a TableViewer with *no* column and it will look
like the same than a ListViewer.

Thanks a lot.

It works just fine. All I had to do was to change the ListViewer to a
TableViewer and nothing else :-)
