How to add a decorator to a tableviewer? [message #11982]

Hi,

I am using the DecoratingLabelProvider for a treeviewer. However, how do i
attach label to a tableviewer containing a normal TableLabelProvider. The
problem is that the DecoratingLabelProvider constructor does not like the
TableLabelProvider as its first argument.

Any ideas?
Thanks

What do you mean with "normal TableLabelProvider"? I don't think a TableLabelProvider is part of the platform. All that
DecoratingLabelProvider needs is something implementing ILabelProvider. Like WorkbenchLabelProvider.

The ITableLabelProvider is part of the platform. That is what i am extending
for the TableViewer. However it is not related in any way to the
ILabelProvider therefore it seems i cannot use it for decoration.

You can always mimic the behaviour of the DecoratingLabelProvider. Whenever
itgoes a get image or get text it gets the value from the label provider and
then decorates it using the decorator manager (see
WorkbenchPlugin.getDefault().getWorkbench().getDecoratorMana ger().getLabelDe
corator()).

Basically you will be creating a DecoratingTableLabelProvider which wraps
the regular label provider and then decorates the result.
