Adding Columns : TableColumn « SWT « Java Tutorial






The TableColumn class represents a column in the table. You create a column with a parent table, a style, and optionally an index. If you don't specify an index, the column assumes the next available zero-based index.

public TableColumn(Table parent, int style)
public TableColumn(Table parent, int style, int index)

The supported styles all specify the alignment for the column's contents:

  1. SWT.LEFT for left alignment,
  2. SWT.CENTER for center alignment, and
  3. SWT.RIGHT for right alignment.
  1. You should specify only one of these;
  2. You can change alignment after construction using the setAlignment() method.
  3. Alignment defaults to left and affects all rows in the column.
