Bug 169997 [CellEditors] TableViewer doesn't activate TextCellEditor consistently
A TextCellEditor is not activated consistently in a TableViewer if the cell clicked is not in the currently selected row. Running the sample application in a debugger, the bounds reported for the table item appears to be incorrect for the column when the row is not selected. This behaviour can be observed by setting a breakpoint at TableEditorImpl.java line 135 (the if statement doesn't return true unless the row is selected due to the bounds being incorrect): if (bounds.contains(event.x, event.y)) {
bundles/org.eclipse.jface/src/org/eclipse/jface/viewers/ColumnViewer.java
(String) getColumnProperties()[columnIndex]);
					}
					return null;
				}
				/*
				 * (non-Javadoc)
				 *
				 * @see org.eclipse.jface.viewers.EditingSupport#setValue(java.lang.Object,
				 *      java.lang.Object)
				 */
				public void setValue(Object element, Object value) {
					Object[] properties = getColumnProperties();
					if (columnIndex < properties.length) {
						getCellModifier().modify(findItem(element),
								(String) getColumnProperties()[columnIndex],
								value);
					}
				}
				boolean isLegacySupport() {
					return true;
				}
			});
		}
	}
