Problem with content assist icons [message #646715]

Hi

I have defined grammar like below

Poller:
'Poller' name=ID '{'
((
'directory' directory=STRING
('append' append=Boolean)?
'}';

Here, 'directory' is mandatory and 'append' is optional.
I want to have different icons for them.
I tried extending DefaultEObjectLabelProvider. But it provides option only for 'Poller' like this:

String image(Poller p) {
return "poller.gif";
}

How to do this for 'directory' and 'append' properties?

Hi,

it is an EObjectLabelProvider and no a EStructuralFeatureLabelProvider.

btw. the properties don't appear in the outline at all so why do you want them to have an icon? or did you change the MyDslTransformer?

or do you want to have different icons for append/non append Pollers?
then just ask the Poller for it's property.

Update: just read it is about content assist:

create your own completion rule and therein invoke

createCompletionProposal(proposal, displayString, image, contentAssistContext);

Thanks Christian.

But if I implement createCompletionProposal, it is invoked after the attribute name is entered i.e., when the attribute value needs to be entered.

But I am able to get the control by implementing doCreateProposal method.

Is there any way to know if the attribute is mandatory or optional at runtime?

Otherwise I'll need to hardcode the attribute names.

for anybody else searching for a solution, it seems to work to implement this in the normal label provider

def image(Keyword kw) {
    switch(kw) {
        case myGrammarAccess.someAccess.myKeyword_1_1: "myimg.png"
        default: null
    }
}

this leaves all icons the same except for the one keyword's...
