eclipse-rcp

I got stuck on one problem with an Eclipse 4 RCP application. I need to log some events. I need obtain somehow a reference to the logger. I know, how to do that using IEclipseContext , but I've nowhere found, how to obtain IEclipseContext without the dependency injection, which I cannot use in the activator. Do you anybody know, how to sort it out this problem, please? Thanks a lot You can get a specialized IEclipseContext by calling EclipseContextFactory.getServiceContext(bundleContext) which will allow access to OSGi services. Tomáš K. It seems regretably, that there is no way to obtain

I would like to know what is "Activate this plug-in when one of its classes is loaded" check-box in Eclipse manifest editor useful for. I thought Eclipse always use "lazy initialization" approach. Does have this option a relation to the BundleActivator class of the plugin? is initialization something different to activation? Here is a similar question, but I don't understand it entirely. Ticking the box causes the following header to be set in the manifest: Bundle-ActivationPolicy: lazy I'll start with how "pure" OSGi deals with this. IF the bundle is started with the START_ACTIVATION_POLICY

Is there any way to add Text and Image in SWT label in a single line. Once I add image, text goes off. No you can't have an image and text simultaneously in a Label (unless you custom draw it). Else use org.eclipse.swt.custom.CLabel : Code: import org.eclipse.swt.SWT; import org.eclipse.swt.custom.CLabel; import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Image; import org.eclipse.swt.layout.FillLayout; import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display; import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell; public class LabelTest { public static void main(String[] args) { final Display display = new Display(); final Shell shell = new Shell

What I tried so far: In createPartControl: ScrolledComposite sc = new ScrolledComposite(parent, SWT.V_SCROLL | SWT.H_SCROLL); sc.setLayoutData(new GridData(GridData.FILL_BOTH)); sc.setExpandVertical(true); sc.setExpandHorizontal(true); sc.setSize(ApplicationWorkbenchWindowAdvisor.WIDTH, ApplicationWorkbenchWindowAdvisor.HEIGHT); final TabFolder tabFolder = new TabFolder(sc, SWT.TOP); but this does not work. My problem is that if I resize my program window the scrollbars does not appear in my view. Any ideas? The Javadoc of ScrolledComposite describes the two ways to use it, including example

I develop an Eclipse RCP application which makes heavy use of OSGi bundles which provide services for later use. The use case requires the bundles to register their services (e.g. import filters) to be used later on in different situations. The OSGi bundles are build with maven-bundle-plugin. How can I tell Equinox to start the OSGi bundles automatically? The normal approach via Activator is not working. Only the lazy mode is working, but I can not touch classes within unknown bundles. I read the OSGi specification and the opposite to lazy load, eager load, is not provided. Is there another

I just exported a product that is working nicely if I hit the "Launch an Eclipse application" button. If try to execute the exported product, I get following exception on the startup: !SESSION 2012-03-16 17:28:21.206 ----------------------------------------------- eclipse.buildId=unknown java.version=1.6.0_26 java.vendor=Sun Microsystems Inc.
