I want to print in printer the content of a SWT Table with correct indentation between columns data. The table has three columns, each column has it's name.



I have a code example which prints text into printer but it only works with Strings, is not capable of drawing SWT Tables.



I imagine two approaches to do it:



Approach 1: Drawing the table. I don't have any idea about how to do that. This whould be the best approach, but can't find any samples of how to doing this.



Approach 2: Storing the content in a String with indentation and printing it later. This can be tested in Log before sending it to my print method. I want to print it with indentation... I mean that each "column" must be separated between them with the same space. This whould be a sample of the expected result stored in a String:



Name...............Group..............Column3...............    
Pepito Palotes.....Grupo1.............23/12/2018, 24/12/2018
Eustaquio Lopez....Grupo2.............25/12/2018............
Ezequiel Cacatua...Group3.............25/12/2018............


Please, any help with this will be grated, dodes exists a sample for printing tables?



This is the table:



    Table groupsTable = new Table(this, SWT.SINGLE | SWT.BORDER | SWT.FULL_SELECTION);
groupsTable.setLinesVisible(true);
groupsTable.setHeaderVisible(true);
GridData gd_groupsTable = new GridData(SWT.LEFT, SWT.FILL, false, true, 1, 1);
gd_groupsTable.widthHint = 300;
groupsTable.setLayoutData(gd_groupsTable);

TableColumn groupsTableColumnName = new TableColumn(groupsTable, SWT.NONE);
groupsTableColumnName.setWidth(100);
groupsTableColumnName.setText("Nombre");

TableColumn groupsTableColumnJointBetName = new TableColumn(groupsTable, SWT.NONE);
groupsTableColumnJointBetName.setWidth(100);
groupsTableColumnJointBetName.setText("Grupo");

TableColumn groupsTableColumnJointBetDate = new TableColumn(groupsTable, SWT.NONE);
groupsTableColumnJointBetDate.setWidth(80);
groupsTableColumnJointBetDate.setText("Fecha");

populateGroupsTable();
