I am in the process of re-writing an application written in an obsolete,
proprietary language. The original app uses table rows with different
background colors to flag different conditions but I cannot seem to find
any way to replicate this. Is it possible, and if so, can anyone provide
examples?

Thanks

That depends.

If you use JFace TableViewer, then let your Label provider additionaly
implement IColrProvider interface.

If you work directly with Table widget, then use
TableItem#setBackground(Color) method. TableItem represent a row in a table.

Color red = Display.getCurrent().getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_RED);
item.setBackground(red);

That was what I needed.

Thanks
