/**
* A content viewer is a model-based adapter on a widget which accesses its
* model by means of a content provider and a label provider.
*
* A viewer's model consists of elements, represented by objects.
* A viewer defines and implements generic infrastructure for handling model
* input, updates, and selections in terms of elements.
* Input is obtained by querying an IContentProvider which returns
* elements. The elements themselves are not displayed directly. They are
* mapped to labels, containing text and/or an image, using the viewer's
* ILabelProvider.
*
*
* Implementing a concrete content viewer typically involves the following steps:
*
* -
* create SWT controls for viewer (in constructor) (optional)
*
* -
* initialize SWT controls from input (inputChanged)
*
* -
* define viewer-specific update methods
*
* -
* support selections (
setSelection, getSelection)
*
*
