Hi everybody,
I was wondering if the Eclipse platform provides a workbench-wide
service for handling the notification of application-specific events
(i.e., listeners registration and events firing).
For example, imagine a plugin that wants to notify views and editors
that a given event occurred (e.g., new articles downloaded, documents
deleted, new data source created, etc.) so that views and editors can
react accordingly (e.g., an editor closes when the corresponding
document is deleted).
What I am looking for is something that allows me to do this:
notificationService.addListener(eventType, target);
notificationService.fireEvent(eventType, eventData);
I guess that this is not available in the standard platform and clients
should provide their own implementation.
Am I missing anything?
Thanks,
-Fabio

You are looking for the EventAdmin-Service of OSGi which is a MessageBus
