I am new to Eclipse development and I need to use mylyn notifications. I have referred [1], [2], [3], but I still couldn't get it to work.
This is my code now.
AbstractNotification notification = new AbstractNotification ("my.event" ) {
public String getLabel() {
return "My Label";
}
public String getDescription(){
return "My Description";
}
@Override
public <T> T getAdapter(Class<T> adapter) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return null;
}
@Override
public Date getDate() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
return new Date();
}
};
NotificationsUi.getService().notify(Collections.singletonList(notification)) ;
This is the plugin.xml
<extension point="org.eclipse.mylyn.commons.notifications.ui.notifications">
<event
categoryId="org.eclipse.mylyn.builds.ui.category.Builds"
id="my.event"
label="My Event"
selected="true">
<defaultHandler
sinkId="org.eclipse.mylyn.commons.notifications.sink.Popup">
</defaultHandler>
</event>
</extension>
What am I missing?
[1] Mylyn notification example for RCP Application
[2] https://resheim.net/2011/04/using-mylyn-notifications.html
[3] https://krishnanmohan.wordpress.com/2012/10/06/scheduled-notifications-in-eclipse-rcp-applications/
Finally managed to get this done by using AbstractNotificationPopUp
in Mylyn commons.ui. Hope this helps.
