Is there any good overview of the JFace label provider framework? The JFace snippets doesn't really explain the relationship between the different generations (pre-3.2, 3.3, 3.4, etc.)

A:
There are a number of good tutorials available. You should know that you need to understand the complete Providerframework (Contentprovider, Labelprovider, Notifications, etc.).
Also, I the architecture between the various Eclipse-Versions barely changed. Are you specifically looking for an Eclipse History?
You'll find plenty on Google. Here are two starting points:
Eclipse Help-Center:
help.eclipse.org/galileo/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.jdt.doc.isv/guide/jdt_api_render.htm
Vogella-Tutorial:

Good Luck

The JFace snippets refer to several generations of JFace/SWT API versions, e.g. "how to do X using pre-3.2 API". I'm looking for an overview of these changes, alternatively a good overview on The Right Way to do things using the most recent release.
