eclipse Table object and TableViewer and TableLayout
Eclipse has a Table widget. The widget is fairly simple like most widgets, and jface viewers and other managers are needed to make it easier to use. This is a much different strategy than .Net's Form framework where everything is built into the object(convenient but the design is not always great).
The one thing I learned is that for column layout management, you can use a TableColumnLayout object. The TableColumnLayout object helps manage columns but allowing them to have a weight, minimum size, etc. While not hugely robust, it does allow you to not have to set resize listeners on the table object and then manually layout the columns. The only caveat is that the TableColumnLayout layout object must be used on a Composite that has a single child-the table.
Here's a link to an example.
