Which SWT widget is used to display text on a tab?

  1. Canvas

  2. Label

  3. Text

  4. Shell

The correct answer is: Label

A Canvas is a blank container that provides a space for the user to draw on. It does not display text specifically. A Text is used for input and display of text and does not necessarily have to be displayed on a tab. A Shell is a window or prompt, but it is not a specific widget used for displaying text on a tab. The correct answer is B Label because a Label is the standard way to display text in SWT, and can be placed on a tab when using a TabFolder or TabItem widget. This widget is specifically used for displaying text on a tab.
