simple text field widget does not work [message #1032071] Tue, 02 April 2013 14:32 Go to next message

In my try to move an 3.x RCP Application to 4 I managed to bump into another issue. I created a simple test part with a simple Text on it. When I start the application, it displays fine and does not show any errors. But when I try typing in the field I get a null pointer in the KeyBindingDispatcher.

my code:

public class DpeEditorPart {
	
	private Text someText;

	@PostConstruct
	public void createPartControl(Composite parent) {
        parent.setLayout(new GridLayout(3, false));
        someText = new Text(parent, SWT.BORDER);

        someText.setLayoutData(new GridData(SWT.FILL, SWT.CENTER, true, false, 1, 1));
        
    }	
@Focus
    private void setFocus(IEclipseContext context) {
       // someText.setFocus();
    }
}


the problem seams to be that the call below in the
org.eclipse.e4.ui.bindings.keys.KeyBindingDispatcher

returns null here:

private EBindingService getBindingService() {
		if (bindingService == null) {
			bindingService = (EBindingService) context.get(EBindingService.class.getName());
		}
		return bindingService;
	}



Which might be, because this service is never put into the context. My guess is, that I missed some dependencies/imports here...?

Thanks.

Well not quite sure if I'm correct, but it seems you are missing some addons. Especially the BindingServiceAddon. How did you create your sample application? Using a wizard or from scratch?

Some information on the addons can be found here: http://www.vogella.com/articles/EclipseRCP/article.html#modeladdons_standard

Well, that is exactly the thing bothering me. When I create a sample application with the wizard and simply add a field, it works. But when I use my application which I want to move from 3.x to 4 it doesn't.

Then the addons seem to be missing. Try to compare the addons section of your application model with the one created by the wizard.
