I apologize if this question is too basic, but I just can’t figure out how to do this. I have a SWT TableFolder with two tabs, and I need to determine which of those two tabs are currently active, as it effects the behavior of another part of the program. Is this possible? Thank you in advance.

    To you mean the org.eclipse.swt.widgets.TabFolder (CTabFolder)?

    If yes add an eventlistener to your TabFolder(CTabFolder object

    tabFolder.addSelectionListener(new SelectionAdapter() {
  public void widgetSelected(org.eclipse.swt.events.SelectionEvent event) {
    tabFolder.getSelection()[0]; // This should be your TabItem/CTabItem
  }
});

    If you simply have a javax.swing.JTabbedPane then calling

    yourJTabbedPaneVariableName.getSelectedIndex()

    gives you the index of the selected Tab
