[EEF] Contributing new widgets [message #649678]

Firstly, thanks a lot for providing this cool framework. I was completely blown away when I saw it working the first time. It did help save a lot of my effort.

I managed to create a master details form using the generated eef providers. I would like to extend the ReferencesTable such that it such multiple columns (that is, some attributes of the model element is displayed in different columns of the table). I could see this in your demo at http://www.eclipse.org/modeling/emft/eef/videos/eef-rcp-appl ication.htm. I guess one way would be to create a custom PropertiesEditionProvider and contributing it. Is there a way to better way to do this? For example, to contribute custom widgets.

Thanks in advance,

Regards,
Nirmal

Neverthless, could you please let me know if any of the exisiting table widgets supports columns?

Hi Nirmal, Thanks for you interest in EEF.

I'm not sure to understand your need, but if you want "model" a table
with several column and define binding between object properties and
column, It's not possible currently.

Otherwise, the EEF TableComposition is a TableViewer and you can
programmatically add columns to this viewer.

Cheers,

Hello Goulwen,

You did understand my question right. Sorry if I wasn't clear enough. As you suggested, I extended the table and added my own columns and contributed them using a custom PropertiesEditionPartProvider. It works fine now.

Thanks for your help.

Regards,
Nirmal

Hi all,

Currently I'm working with GMF and EEF. When a user clicks on a graphical element I need to display table holding custom properties or/and object references organized in columns and rows.

Is there a way how to realize that rows and columns look and content directly through the Components and Views model of EEF?

Or if any code changes are needed can you point me to some examples?

I've noticed you already have experience with something similar and I just started using EEF.

Thanks,
Hristina
