How to add multiple columns in ListSelectionDialog in eclipse?

I am creating a dialog by extending org.eclipse.ui.dialogs.ListSelectionDialog

While overriding createDialogArea(Composite parent) if I call super.createDialogArea(parent) and create 3 columns in the table viewer, the columnCount of org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Table is set to 1 by default. Hence, the labelprovider's getText() is called only for column with index 0 and I don't get text in other 2 columns.

How can I create/add multiple columns in createDialogArea(Composite parent) so that it works correctly?

Underlying table in ListSelectionDialog uses TableLayout and by default it is configured to span the first (and only) column to 100% of the table width. So, you you add more columns, you also need to configure the layout using addColumnData(ColumnLayoutData data) method.
