Hi,

how can i find out (programmatically) which color will be used to
highlight selection ins a table ?
This setting is OS dependent.
WinXP: blue
MacOS9: grey

Since SWT doesnt supoort multiselection of cells in a table i want to
build my own selection visualisation.

Color backgroundSelection =
display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_LIST_SELECTION);
Color foregroundSelection =
display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_LIST_SELECTION_TEXT);
