Getting modify Event from text widget out to editor [message #442046]

Hi.

I have wrapped a table in my own EditableTable Composite and incorporated
a TableCursor and embedded Text widgets for in-place text editing. I use
this Composite both in a wizard, and in a multi-page editor. What I am now
trying (and failing) to do, is to trigger a PROP_DIRTY property change for
the EditorPart. I can rely on the ModifyEvent from the Text Widget to find
out when the text has changed, and I can use this to fire an event from my
EditableTable Composite. However, I have been struggling to find something
meaningful to fire, which the Editor wil bother to listen too. The
PropertyChangeEvent that a Composite can generate (String name) appears
not to be compatible with the PropertyListener in the MultiPageEditorPart
(wants an int as property value). I'm sure I am missing something
blatantly obvious, but I can't see what it is.

Thanks,

Farrell.
