IEMFListProperty mProp = EMFEditProperties.list(editingDomain, ModelPackage.Literals.MODEL__SUBELEMENTS);
TableViewer tv = new TableViewer(...);
tv.setContentProvider(new ObservableListContentProvider());
tv.setInput(mProp.observeDetail(model));
//(set labelProvider, filter, sorter...)

This typical databinding only reacts to addition and removals of values from the list but not from changes of the attributes of each object of the list.
Logically, a table usually shows the value of the attributes of each object of the list so reacting (by databinding) to changes in these attributes should be an expect code snippet in the web that I do not find Surprised (I am a very bad google searcher but not so much Razz)

Is there a simple solution to this? Some code snippet or url is accepted.

My teorical approach is very complex and heavy-weighted:
1) Add an observer to each value of the list that reacts to the features of the table that we want to show. Add a listener to each created observed to refresh all the view of the table (.refresh, maybe an optimized refresh only if the elements are shown or in the cache)
2) Add a listener to the first observer of the list to react from addition and removal of objects. If it is an addition, to assign the observer and listener like 1) to this new value. If it is a removal, dispose the observer of 1) (that I think this action removes all added listeners)

Is my way a good method? Surprised (I expect not)

You are searching for an ObservableMapLabelProvider or
ObservableMapCellLabelProvider.

See
http://tomsondev.bestsolution.at/2009/06/27/galileo-emf-databinding-part-5/
for a custom one (GenericMapCellLabelProvider)

or
http://tomsondev.bestsolution.at/2009/06/08/galileo-emf-databinding-%E2%80%93-part-3/
(TreeLabelProviderImpl)

OMG! I had to be asleep when I read your part 5 article.
The part 5 article has a simple and very understandable snippet code
Thank you very much
