Hi,

I have tree viewer with two columns as property and value. I need to make 2nd column editable. Tried setting column editors and column properties as follows but not able to edit any column.

Code snippet :

viewer = new TreeViewer(parent, SWT.SINGLE | SWT.H_SCROLL | SWT.V_SCROLL | SWT.FULL_SELECTION);
viewer.setColumnProperties(new String[] {"Property","Value"});

viewer.setCellEditors(new CellEditor[]{new TextCellEditor(viewer.getTree()), new TextCellEditor(viewer.getTree())});

viewer.setCellModifier(new ICellModifier() {
@Override
public void modify(Object element, String property, Object value) {
System.out.println("propertyName\t" + property);
}
@Override
public Object getValue(Object element, String property) {

return null;
}
@Override
public boolean canModify(Object element, String property) {
/*
return true;
}
});
viewer.setContentProvider(new ViewContentProvider());
viewer.setLabelProvider(new ViewLabelProvider());
viewer.setSorter(new NameSorter());

Please suggest if missing anything. Stuck.
Any help would be grateful.

Thanks,
Vrushali.

public Object getValue(Object element, String property) {

return null;
}

should not return a null value

---------------------
why, mr. Anderson, why, why do you persist?
Because I Choose To.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I tried returning some random string from the function getValue() but still it does not seem to be working. I'm not even getting editable text.
I'm referring to snippet
http://bingjava.appspot.com/snippet.jsp?id=2206

I need the same functionality in treeviewer with columns.

Can you/anyone please look through and suggest missings?

Thanks again in advance,
Vrushali.
