How to add a button to a table cell to make the button as part of the cell? Just like the Properties view of Winderbuilder

Question

Here is the UI of Windowbuilder: http://www.java-forums.org/blogs/eclipse/attachments/2900d1328496793-using-windowbuilder-design-gui-eclipse-properties-pane.png

The Properties view is at the bottom left of the UI, you can see there is a cell with "dialog15" text and a button at its right hand.

Now I want to create such cell in my table: User can input text to the cell directly, or click the button to select the existing text in a new opened window... But I don't know how to start it. Could anyone give me a hand? Any tutorial?

BTW, I am using SWT. I found some examples using SWING, but haven't found any good tutorial using SWT

check this link i am sure this will help you [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2069641/adding-buttons-inside-cell-of-jtable-along-with-data](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2069641/adding-buttons-inside-cell-of-jtable-along-with-data) — NullPoiиteя, May 22 '12 at 15:17

I think you are looking for CellEditor / Table Editor concepts in Jface table viewer.
