partService.hidePart(part, true) does not respect MDirtyable [message #1060584]

Hello,

when I'm using
@Inject
private MDirtyable dirtyState;

to control the state of my part, it works for closing the tab through the ui. But when I use partService.hidePart(part, true) to close the part, the MDirtyable is not respected. Did I miss something here or does the service not check for the state.... ?

I understand, you mean that the confirmation dialog does not pup up when you close (or more precisely - hide) part programmatically.

If that's the case, why not do that yourself. For example:

if(part.isDirty())
   partService.savePart(part, true);
ps.hidePart(part);

(The above will end up hiding the part regardless if it was saved or not)

You can also obtain ISaveHandler instance from the part's/window's context and call it directly:

if(part.isDirty()){
	ISaveHandler handler = part.getContext().get(ISaveHandler.class);
	ISaveHandler.Save userDecision = handler.promptToSave(part);
	switch(userDecision){
		case YES : 
			partService.savePart(part, false);
			partService.hidePart(part, true);
			break;
		case NO :
			partService.hidePart(part,true);
			break;
		case CANCEL :
			break;
	}
			}

I wonder if we should not have an API in EPartService which can be
instructed to check the dirty state.

@Andrzej Szczepanski: Thank's for the workaround. Especially the second one I did not think about the ISaveHandler. But my original intention was to rise the discussion for the extension of the EPartService - API as Tom suggested. I think that will be the cleaner approach. But in the meanwhile I will use your workaround ... Wink

Thanks.

Please file a bug so that we can maybe add this API in Luna (=4.4).
