Description Yoav Rubin

Currently ComboBoxCellEditor doesn't have a constructor that receives the style for the created combo. 
The created combo doesn't have the style bit SWT.READ_ONLY, therefore the user may type a different value 
from the ones on the list. I'd like to force the user to select one of the items on the combo's list, and 
not type in a different one. Moreover, if the user does type a different value, an exception occures 
(because there wasn't any selection in the combo...)

Does the exception occur in your code or in ComboBoxCellEditor?

Should change all CellEditors to support user-specified style bits:
- add a constructor in CellEditor which takes the style bits and remembers them 
before calling createControl
- add a getStyle() method to CellEditor
- add constructors that take style in subclasses
- change current constructors in subclasses to call the new constructor with 
the default style
- change the createControl methods to use getStyle()
