    Default how to know if cell was changed in tableviewer

    I created tableviewer ( jface ).

    All the columns are editable ( using EditingSupport )

    I want to know when cell is changed and then

    to raise a flag in other column. meaning that you start to write any data in the cell

    I know that I need to create event of key changed listener to the cells. ( or there is different way )

    How I can have access to the cell ? where do I need to add the event

    public class MyGridViewer extends TableViewer {
    public MyGridViewer (Composite parent) {
    super(parent, SWT.MULTI | SWT.H_SCROLL | SWT.V_SCROLL | SWT.FULL_SELECTION | SWT.BORDER);

    final Table table = this.getTable();
    table.setHeaderVisible(true);
    table.setLinesVisible(true);

    this.setContentProvider(new MyModelProvider());

    @Override
    protected void inputChanged(Object input, Object oldInput) {

    removeColumn();



    tableCol = new TableViewerColumn(this, SWT.NONE);
    column = tableCol.getColumn();
    column.setText(dataColumnHeader.getName());
    column.setWidth(100);
    column.setResizable(true);
    column.setMoveable(true);
    tableCol.setLabelProvider(new ColumnLabelProvider() {
    @Override
    public String getText(Object element) {
    DataRow r = (DataRow) element;
    DataCell c = r.getDataCellByName(dataColumnHeader.getName());
    if (c != null && c.getValue() != null) {
    return c.getValue().toString();
    }
    return null;
    }
    });


    editingSupport = new StringCellEditingSupport(this, dataColumnHeader);
    tableCol.setEditingSupport(editingSupport);
    super.inputChanged(input, oldInput);
    }

    Default How to get the right value in tableviewer?

    I created tableviewer ( jface ).

    All the columns are editable ( using EditingSupport )

    I want to save the changes in the table.

    I Added a button of save.

    The issue that I tried change the value in the cell ( the focus is still on the cell ) I press save and I want to read the value that changed.The issue that I always see the old value and not the new value.

    If I changed the focus of the cell then it is working.

    Do I need to add event for the editing in the cell ?

    The button is above the table

    Welcome to the forum! Please don't post duplicate threads/topics. It's confusing and doesn't increase either the likelihood of getting help or the quality of help you'll get.

    Please read this topic to learn how to post code in code or highlight tags and other useful info for newcomers, including a few "house rules" that you'd try to follow when visiting someplace new.
