[news.eclipse.platform] Re: Cell selection in a tableviewer

[Tom Schindl <tom.schindl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is not possible. SWT doesn't has direct API to fetch the row-index 
and for viewers it is most of the time not important because the 
Model-Object should hold all the data but you could easily calculate it 
from the Cell-Bounds or even better if you are in-single-select-mode 
(which you must :-) query to the table for the current-selection-index.
