Bug 111959 [Viewers] ColorAndFontCollector and getColorAndFontCollector() visibility conflict
I'm creating a viewer for a custom table and extending StructuredViewer. In StructuredViewer the method getColorAndFontCollector() is protected so I should be able to access it. But the return type is ColorAndFontCollector which is declared as a package level class thus I can't call the method because the return type isn't visible to viewers outside of the viewers package.

if(foreground != null)
						control.setForeground(foreground);
				}
			}
			else{
				
				control.setBackground(background);
				control.setForeground(foreground);
			}
			
			if(fontProvider == null){
				if(usedDecorators && font != null)
					control.setFont(font);
			}
			else
				control.setFont(font);
			
			clear();
		}
