Hi,

how can I set the selection in a combobox using the JFace ComboViewer?
There's a method setSelection, but I don't know how to handle it.

Sorry, if this was asked before, but there's no search function available.

Thanks, Rudolf

It's actually quite easy. For example if we have JFace ComboViewer that contains the following String elements { "A", "B", "C" }

you can simply set the selection to "B" with the following call:
comboViewer.setSelection(new StructuredSelection("B"));
