Adding a property sheet to an EMF editor
At 1:15 PM on Aug 7, 2008, Alain Michel wrote:
I'm building an editor to display a model with a treeViewer that uses a
ReflectiveItemProviderAdapterFactory. It works fine.
But now I want to add a Properties view. So I've added code like that :
private PropertySheetPage propertySheetPage;
public IPropertySheetPage getPropertySheetPage() {
if (propertySheetPage == null) {
propertySheetPage = new ExtendedPropertySheetPage(editingDomain);
propertySheetPage.setPropertySourceProvider(
new AdapterFactoryContentProvider(adapterFactory));
}
return propertySheetPage;
}
public Object getAdapter(Class key) {
if (key.equals(IPropertySheetPage.class)) {
return getPropertySheetPage();
} else {
return super.getAdapter(key);
}
}
And I've made the PropertySheet refresh when a node is selected. But it
doesn't seem to be enough (my properties view is empty). What step(s) am
I missing?
Thanks,
Alain

Re: Adding a property sheet to an EMF editor
Alain,Is your editor properly providing selections? You need to set the
editor site's selection provider...

Re: Adding a property sheet to an EMF editor
Hmm yes I forgot adding a getSite().setSelectionProvider(myTreeViewer)to the editor. Sorry for the bother.
