How to apply decorators to the label provider in RCP eclipse environment?

I wanted to apply decorators (that is images) to my custom label provider which is of tree viewer form displaying the list of some folder names. I googled it out but unfortunately only i got the information of how to create decorators.

For example : i have a label provider by name "ViewLabelProvider" which is able to display list of folders. I want to differentiate these folders by applying some icons through decorators, but I am not able to establish a relationship between the custom decorators to the above label provider mentioned.

Please let me know, how to achieve this.

Thanks in advance...

The tree label provider needs to be DecoratingLabelProvider to pick up the decorators:

treeViewer.setLabelProvider(
      new DecoratingLabelProvider(your label provider,
                PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getDecoratorManager().getLabelDecorator()));

you pass your label provider as a parameter to DecoratingLabelProvider.
