public final class ComboViewer
extends AbstractListViewer

A concrete viewer based on an SWT `Combo` control. This class is intended as an alternative to the JFace `ListViewer`, which displays its content in a combo box rather than a list. Wherever possible, this class attempts to behave like ListViewer.

This class is designed to be instantiated with a pre-existing SWT combo control and configured with a domain-specific content provider, label provider, element filter (optional), and element sorter (optional).

Since:
  3.0

  `ListViewer`
