Interface ItemLabelProvider

All Known Subinterfaces:

ItemExtendedLabelProvider

public interface ItemLabelProvider

Implementations of this interface can be used to maintain the label (image, and text) of a specific item. The implementation will monitor the item for any changes that affect the label and forward them appropriately to the ItemLabelProvider.Manager.

Provisional API: This interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken (repeatedly) as the API evolves.
