I am Trying to create Eclipse Plugin which has a composite with two TreeViewer
side by side. On click of each TreeViewer
content Eclipse property view should give appropriate information. Now I wanted to set Selection provider for both of this treeviewer hence I used
setSelectionProvider(treeViewer1)
setSelectionProvider(treeviewer2)
But only the second added treeviewer get set since the first one is overwritten. I am intiating this two treeviewer from class Queue.java. Hence I implemented the interface ISelectionProvider
over Queue.java as below:
public void addSelectionChangedListener(ISelectionChangedListener listener)
{
selectionChangedListeners.add(listener);
}
public void
removeSelectionChangedListener(ISelectionChangedListener listener)
{
selectionChangedListeners.remove(listener);
}
private void fireSelectionChanged(final SelectionChangedEvent event)
{
Object[] listeners = selectionChangedListeners.getListeners();
for (int i = 0; i < listeners.length; ++i)
{
final ISelectionChangedListener l =
(ISelectionChangedListener) listeners[i];
Platform.run(new SafeRunnable()
{
public void run()
{
l.selectionChanged(event);
}
@Override
public void handleException(Throwable e)
{
removeSelectionChangedListener(l);
}
});
}
}
public void setSelection(ISelection selection)
{
fireSelectionChanged(new SelectionChangedEvent(this, selection));
}
public ISelection getSelection()
{
ArrayList<Object> list = new ArrayList<Object>();
Object o = getProperties();
if (o instanceof IPropertySource)
list.add(o);
return new StructuredSelection(list);
}
Can anyone help me how to resolve this issue. I will be grateful. thanks in advance. Tor.
Your view would have to write a selection provider wrapper or mediator that would delegate to the viewer that currently had focus. Then your view would set it up something like this:
SelectionProviderWrapper wrapper = new SelectionProviderWrapper();
wrapper.addViewer(treeViewer1);
wrapper.addViewer(treeViewer2);
getSite().setSelectionProvider(wrapper);
I would check out org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.viewsupport.SelectionProviderMediator
for an example of a selection provider for multiple JFace viewers.
