使用虚拟表和虚拟树的确可以很大程度地提供UI界面的性能,尤其是在大数据量的情况下，对于TableViewer使用虚拟表很简单，只要在创建TableViewer的时候指定SWT.VIRTUAL即可

tableViewer = new TableViewer(container, SWT.FULL_SELECTION
| SWT.BORDER | SWT.HIDE_SELECTION|SWT.VIRTUAL);

在以前的版本，TableViewer要使用virtual table的时候，需要实现ILazyContentProvider接口，但是目前好像是不用了，下面附上两个eclipse社区提供的例子

Snippet030VirtualLazyTableViewer.java,使用的是实现ILazyContentProvider接口
import org.eclipse.jface.viewers.ILazyContentProvider;
import org.eclipse.jface.viewers.IStructuredContentProvider;
import org.eclipse.jface.viewers.LabelProvider;
import org.eclipse.jface.viewers.TableViewer;
import org.eclipse.jface.viewers.Viewer;
import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.FillLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell;

/**
* A simple TableViewer to demonstrate usage of an ILazyContentProvider. You can compare this snippet to the Snippet029VirtualTableViewer
* to see the small but needed difference.

public class Snippet030VirtualLazyTableViewer {
private class MyContentProvider implements IStructuredContentProvider, ILazyContentProvider {
private TableViewer viewer;
private MyModel[] elements;

public MyContentProvider(TableViewer viewer) {
this.viewer = viewer;
}

/* (non-Javadoc)

*/
public void inputChanged(Viewer viewer, Object oldInput, Object newInput) {
this.elements = (MyModel[])newInput;
}

public void updateElement(int index) {
viewer.replace(elements[index], index);
}

}

public class MyModel {
public int counter;

public MyModel(int counter) {
this.counter = counter;
}

public String toString() {
return "Item " + this.counter;
}
}

public Snippet030VirtualLazyTableViewer(Shell shell) {
final TableViewer v = new TableViewer(shell,SWT.VIRTUAL);
v.setLabelProvider(new LabelProvider());
v.setContentProvider(new MyContentProvider(v));
v.setUseHashlookup(true);
MyModel[] model = createModel();
v.setInput(model);
v.setItemCount(model.length); // This is the difference when using a ILazyContentProvider

v.getTable().setLinesVisible(true);
}

private MyModel[] createModel() {
MyModel[] elements = new MyModel[10000];

for( int i = 0; i < 10000; i++ ) {
elements[i] = new MyModel(i);
}

return elements;
}

/**

public static void main(String[] args) {

new Snippet030VirtualLazyTableViewer(shell);
shell.open ();

if (!display.readAndDispatch ()) display.sleep ();
}

display.dispose ();

}

}

Snippet029VirtualTableViewer.java 更加方便，直接指定SWT.VIRTUAL即可
