I have an AggregateValidationStatus
with an IChangeListener
. The listener is called every time I select/change and component which is what I need. The only problem I have is that I have to trigger the validate()
method of my MultiValidator
in the beginning of the ChangeListener
. Sadly there is very low documentation and what I found didn't help me.
My ChangeListener
final AggregateValidationStatus aggregateValidationStatus = new AggregateValidationStatus(
dataBindingContext.getBindings(), AggregateValidationStatus.MAX_SEVERITY);
aggregateValidationStatus.addChangeListener(new IChangeListener() {
public void handleChange(ChangeEvent event) {
//Here I have to trigger the MultiValidator to return either OK or ERROR
boolean formIsValid = true;
aggregateValidationStatus.getValue();
for (Object o : dataBindingContext.getBindings()) {
Binding binding = (Binding) o;
IStatus status = (IStatus) binding.getValidationStatus().getValue();
if (!status.isOK()) {
formIsValid = false;
}
Control control = null;
if (binding.getTarget() instanceof ISWTObservable) {
ISWTObservable swtObservable = (ISWTObservable) binding.getTarget();
control = (Control) swtObservable.getWidget();
}
if (binding.getTarget() instanceof CalendarComboObservableValue) {
CalendarComboObservableValue observable = (CalendarComboObservableValue) binding.getTarget();
control = (Control) observable.getControl();
}
if (binding.getTarget() instanceof IViewerObservable) {
IViewerObservable observable = (IViewerObservable) binding.getTarget();
control = observable.getViewer().getControl();
}
ControlDecoration decoration = decoratorMap.get(control);
if (decoration != null) {
if (status.isOK() || status.matches(Status.WARNING)) {
decoration.hide();
} else {
decoration.setDescriptionText(status.getMessage());
decoration.show();
}
}
}
if (saveBtn != null)
saveBtn.setEnabled(formIsValid);
}
});
Your AggregateValidationStatus
only aggregates over the bindings of the datBindingContext
:
final AggregateValidationStatus aggregateValidationStatus = new AggregateValidationStatus(
dataBindingContext.getBindings(), AggregateValidationStatus.MAX_SEVERITY);
The MultiValidator
is not attached to a single binding but to the whole context. So if you want your AggregateValidationStatus
to monitor MultiValidator
s as well, you should use a different constructor:
final AggregateValidationStatus aggregateValidationStatus = new AggregateValidationStatus(
dataBindingContext, AggregateValidationStatus.MAX_SEVERITY);
This should make the manual trigger of the MultiValidator
in handleChanged
superfluent.
