rcp

I'm writing an Eclipse RCP and I want to ask the user whether to backup the database when the application is closed. Doing it from the File>Exit menu was easy as I defined a command exit: public class ExitCommand extends AbstractHandler implements IHandler { @Override public Object execute(ExecutionEvent event) throws ExecutionException { final IWorkbench workbench = PlatformUI.getWorkbench(); if (workbench == null) return null; // Ask whether the user wants to back up the information Shell shell = new Shell(workbench.getDisplay()); MessageBox messageBox = new MessageBox(shell, SWT.ICON

Is there any way where I can increase the Java Compiler Compliance level of Eclipse 3.5 to 1.7. (i.e.) By adding a plugin/add-on. Since by default this will not support the JDK 1.7 compliance. We have a constraint in Eclipse upgrade, since it's an RCP application. Any thoughts on this will be greatly appreciated. Thank You. Old eclipse version doesn't support java 7. You will have to download at least eclipse-3.8M1 version. To conclude, there is no way to enable Java 7 Compliance in Eclipse 3.5. Have to migrate to 3.7 at least. Thanks a lot for your responses.

I want to enable project-based Preference-dialogs for our product. I stumble upon 2 different problems: How do I store those project related informations. As an educated guess I would try this one: IPreferenceStore store = new ScopedPreferenceStore(new ProjectScope(project.getIProject()), Activator.PLUGIN_ID) ; Afterwards set the "project store" as I want (for example inside a preference page as store) How do I enable a Preference Page only for a project? I know I can call a preference dialog with some preselected pages using the PreferenceUtils.createPreferenceDialogOn(…) . Unfortunately the

I am creating a custom toolbar for my RCP application. As shown in figure I want to have a drop down box with three other text boxes. These are basically the input box and are interdependent. Right now each of these boxes are in separate classes. I want to bring them together in one class so it is easier to create listeners for each other. protected void fillCoolBar(ICoolBarManager coolBar) { IToolBarManager toolbar = new ToolBarManager(coolBar.getStyle()); coolBar.add(toolbar); Toolbar extraToolBar = new Toolbar("Toolbar"); toolbar.add(extraToolBar); toolbar.add(new Separator()); toolbar.add

I want to print the contents of a SWT Browser Widget. but it prints the only the visible part of the browser not the full content of it. Please help. I've modified the SWT Browser snippet to selected code, and it work for me like a charm.. import org.eclipse.swt.*; import org.eclipse.swt.layout.*; import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.*; import org.eclipse.swt.browser.*; public class BrowserPrintTest { public static void main(String [] args) { Display display = new Display(); final Shell shell = new Shell(display); GridLayout gridLayout = new GridLayout(); gridLayout.numColumns = 3; shell.setLayout

My Eclipse RCP application requires a configuration file that contains some information to connect to a remote database. Where is the best location to store this configuration file? Can I use the default configuration directory (where 'config.ini' is usually stored) for this purpose? If so, how can I get a File instance to this location programmatically? I also note that this directory does not exist in my Eclipse IDE. Thanks. You have, as always, a number of options, depending on your requirements. use the Runtime Preferences to store in a PreferenceStore with a suitable PreferenceInitializer
