Starting point:
Eclipse Platform-UI uses CTabFolder and has customized CTabFolderRenderer, it basically extends CTabFolderRenderer.java only.

To start with, suggest to clone below platform-UI repository:
git://git.eclipse.org/gitroot/platform/eclipse.platform.ui.git

Once you have the platform-UI projects imported into your workspace.
Open "Type Hierarchy" for SWT CTabFolderRenderer.java, you should see custom CTabRendering.java class
