Refresh element in ElementListSelectionDialog [message #385166]

Hi,

I am extending ElementListSelectionDialog with a button that allow me to
pop up another dialog to edit the selected element.

I am looking for a way to refresh the ElementListSelectionDialog once the
element got updated. I called setElements() to put in the updated element
and then tried both getControlArea().redraw() or getContents().redraw().
Neither of them refresh the display of the dialog.

I also tried using the suggested mechanism in for viewer refresh using the
asyncExec(), it did not work either.

Am I going it the wrong way? What is the proper way to do this?

Thanks,
-DJ

Did you try calling setListElements()?
