Common Navigator Framework - Trigger refresh [message #731204]

Hi,

is there a way to programmatically trigger a refresh of all navigators?

Background is that I have a custom decorator. On changes of that decorator I want all the labels to be refreshed (not the resources though)

thanks
Christian

There is nothing that knows about all instances of the Common Navigator, so you have to know about them and refresh them yourself.

I found a way to achieve this for some cases by triggering the refresh command:

// trigger a refresh
IHandlerService handlerService = (IHandlerService) PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getService(IHandlerService.class);
if (handlerService != null) {
	try {
		handlerService.executeCommand("org.eclipse.ui.file.refresh", null);
	} catch (Exception e) {
	}
}

Not exactly what I wanted but helps in some cases.

If you have a resource available you can call refreshLocal() on it:

IFile resource = <get resource somehow>
if (resource != null) resource.refreshLocal(IResource.DEPTH_INFINITE, monitor);
