I am trying to take advantage of the suggestion on page 206 of the user manual.
Quote:

However, you can improve the testability of your application by using the following method in your SWT or RCP code for the current component class: setData(String key, String ComponentName). For the key, use TEST_COMP_NAME.

My code:

public void createPartControl(Composite parent) {

	Composite compositeWindingData = new Composite(section, SWT.NONE);
	compositeWindingData.setData("TEST_COMP_NAME", "windingComposite");
	viewer = new TableViewer(parent, SWT.BORDER | SWT.FULL_SELECTION | SWT.MULTI);
	viewer.setData("TEST_COMP_NAME", "tv_motor_list");
	Table table = this.viewer.getTable();
	viewer.setData("TEST_COMP_NAME", "tbl_motor_list");
}

The technical name in the Object Mapper is the same before and after adding the above setData() statements. I even created a new Test Project in the database after adding the setData() statements.

Any suggestions what I can do to get more consistent names?

a) Only SWT components are evaluated by their Data property. Setting Data on the TableViewer won't help since it is not used.
b) In RCP a few components are identified by their IDs (Editors, Views, etc.). The Data property might be ignored on these components.
c) In your example, you are setting the Data property twice on the Viewer (which looks like a copy/paste/modify error). Setting Data on the Table should give you a new name for the component.
