[news.eclipse.tools.emf] Re: Implementing ITableItemLableProvider breaks

[Ed Merks <merks@xxxxxxxxxx>]

John,

I've not see a problem like that.  Probably if you put a breakpoint in 
that method, you'll see why that's being called, but I wouldn't expect 
it to be called except to show the item in a table column.  Maybe 
something has changed in the JFace viewer implementations.  At least if 
you can see why it's getting called, you might be able to specialize the 
AdapterFactoryLabelProvider to not take that path...
