problem with TriggeredOperations (undo doesn't work??) [message #663415] Mon, 04 April 2011 22:42

Hi,

I have an application in which a parent-operation may trigger N
child-operations.

I want the parent-operation to appear in the operations-history, and if
I call undo on the parent-operation, I want it to undo all the
child-operations it triggered.

I think this is, more or less, the use case for ICompositeOperation and
in particular for TriggeredOperations.

The problem is, I can't figure out how to make it work correctly.

Please, see my test class below.

In this class I instantiate 3 operations:
1. triggerOp
2. childOp1
3. childOp2

(they are dummy ops that just print their name and invoked method)

then I create a TriggeredOperations batch as follows:
TriggeredOperations batch = new TriggeredOperations(triggerOp, history);

and I intercept the child-ops by executing them inside a
history.operationOpen/historyOperationClose block.

So far, so good. ChildOp1 and ChildOp2 end up as children of batch.

The problem arises if I try to call history.undo: only triggerOp.undo is
invoked, while I would have expected to see

childOp1.undo
childOp2.undo

called! Is it a bug, or am I missing something here?

I dump the code here. Dependencies are:

org.eclipse.core.commands
org.eclipse.core.runtime
org.eclipse.equinox.common

import org.eclipse.core.commands.ExecutionException;
import org.eclipse.core.commands.operations.AbstractOperation;

public class TriggeredOperationsTest {

static class MyOperation extends AbstractOperation {

public MyOperation(String label) {
super(label);
}

@Override
public IStatus execute(IProgressMonitor monitor, IAdaptable info)
throws ExecutionException {
System.out.println(this.getLabel() + "->execute");
return Status.OK_STATUS;
}

@Override
public IStatus redo(IProgressMonitor monitor, IAdaptable info)
throws ExecutionException {
System.out.println(this.getLabel() + "->redo");
return Status.OK_STATUS;
}

@Override
public IStatus undo(IProgressMonitor monitor, IAdaptable info)
throws ExecutionException {
System.out.println(this.getLabel() + "->undo");
return Status.OK_STATUS;
}

}

public static void main(String[] args) {
IOperationHistory history = new DefaultOperationHistory();
IUndoContext myContext = new ObjectUndoContext("MyContext");

// used only as a marker (in my -erroneous- understanding)
IUndoableOperation triggerOp = new MyOperation("TriggerOp");
triggerOp.addContext(myContext);

// this are two actual operations
IUndoableOperation childOp1 = new MyOperation("ChildOp1");
childOp1.addContext(myContext);

IUndoableOperation childOp2 = new MyOperation("ChildOp2");
childOp2.addContext(myContext);

// the composite operation is marked by triggerOp
TriggeredOperations batch = new TriggeredOperations(triggerOp, history);

// from now on operations executed by history will be added to "batch"
history.openOperation(batch, IOperationHistory.EXECUTE);

try {
history.execute(childOp1, null, null);
history.execute(childOp2, null, null);
} catch (ExecutionException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

// the composite operation is closed and added to the history
history.closeOperation(true, true, IOperationHistory.EXECUTE);

// history contains only the
System.out.println();
System.out.println("history:");
for (IUndoableOperation i : history.getUndoHistory(myContext)) {
// type is printed too: the history contains only "batch"
System.out.println(i.getClass().getSimpleName() + " " + i.getLabel());
}

// I expected child operations be undone too, but thry are not
System.out.println();
System.out.println("undo:");
try {
history.undo(myContext, null, null);
} catch (ExecutionException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

}

}
