I'm looking for a way to extend GWT FlexTable or CellTable to a "TreeTable". I want a table with expandable rows, and I want to be able to get the data from the sever when it's needed. So I don't want to populate the whole table (all levels) from the start.
Is it best to use a FlexTable or a CellTable to start with? Or are there any examples/plugins on the web for this?
All ideas and tips are appreciated!
I found a TreeTable widget at Google Web Toolkit Incubator . Here is the demo

Does anybody have any idea on how to easily implement a image list(like the windows explorer with medium icons) control with swt? it seems like that it could be done easily with CListCtrl in c++ on windows, but does not seem to be easy with swt? any hints are appreciated!
Up to me, you need to create your own widget (check e.g. http://www.snip2code.com/Snippet/11489/Custom-SWT-List-Box) and add composite items to your custom list.
If vertical-only scrolling is enough, I suggest you rely on a single column TableViewer. This is what I did in a project where I needed a gallery-like window allowing the user to pick a graphical component based on displayed thumbnails.
You just need to implement the proper TableLabelProvider.getColumnImage and return the desired thumbnail corresponding to your list entry.
That gives a pretty decent list-like rendering.
In addition, TableViewer API is very well documented.
I'm working on Eclipse RCP Viewer framework, i have a requirement to place a button widget in column of TableViewer.
I have been following the tutorials to develop my application
I don't find any widget inside the tableviewer, as in the example it was just an image, is it possible to place a widget, any idea please suggest me.
I've searched API to find any predefined method like getWidget() similar to getImage() ,that can be placed in col.setLabelProvider(), but there was none actually,How can i do this
you may want to use editing support or for instance DialogCellEditor

It seems swt table does't allow us to operate on multiple cells ?My application need a feature like this "select a range of cells, then copy cell text to excel, or paste text into cells".I think this will be a handy feature.
Any solution on this ?
best regards
Take a look at the nat table component, see http://www.nattable.org/drupal/
This component has many features that are not covered by the basic SWT table widget
For people reaching this, NatTable has been moved to Eclipse Nebula.
https://eclipse.org/nebula
It also contains Grid and XViewer as table alternatives.
I have a requirement of a tree like widget in a CellTable and so far I haven't found anything that works seamlessly. So, I was evaluating celltree.
As most of my functionality is ready with CellTable and as tree like requirement has come very late into the development I want to incorporate it somehow in the CellTable itself rather than re-writing the whole UI again.
Is it possible to do with CellTable?
If you are using CellTable implement a custom Cell and feed it an implementation of TreeViewModel. Easier said than done, but that's the basic approach I would use.
Anyone know an open source component for a GWT Table with collapsible rows?
If you want to stick with "pure" GWT, check out the TreeTable (demo) from the GWT Incubator project - it seems exactly what you are looking for.
I believe SmartGWT is open source.
It contains a GridList widget, which supports collapsible rows. See the showcase here. This is of course not a table, as you asked for, but it comes quite close :)
