Question

When invoking tableViewer.getTable().selectAll() the registered selection listeners will not be notified (as usual for all kind of programmatic selection changes in SWT – according to my knowledge). How can I trigger an internal selection change to the TableViewer so it notifies all listeners?

Answer 1

You can do this:

yourTableViewer.getTable().notifyListeners( SWT.Selection, null );

Where null is an Event. Remember that this is the Event received by your listener.
