Hiding Actions using an Environmental Variable [message #465007]

Hi:

I have an RCP app and I want to be able to turn on and off actions via an
ENV VAR set in windows. We have good reasons for doing, although you may
ask :-).

I have tried this with something like this using visibility and
systemProperty:

<action
class="com.x4m.coreui.wizardview.ShowWizardViewAction"
id="com.x4m.seismicui.processing.ProcMultiVolumeWizardID"
menubarPath="com.x4m.seismicui.seismicmenu/seismicGroup"
style="push"
label="Process multiple volumes..."
tooltip="Process multiple volumes"> <visibility>
<systemProperty
name="AAPG2007"
value="true"/>
</visibility> </action>

but it still shows up if I have not set the ENV VAR AAPG2007

Can someone please offer some advice?

Thanks,

Chris

Chris,

We have good luck using enablements on actions, including using system
properties. Here's an example:

<action
class="com.xxx.actions.AddFeaturesAction"
id="com.xxx.ui.addFeatures"
label="Add Features...."
menubarPath="help/com.xxx.ui.updateMenu/separator3"
style="push">
<enablement>
<systemProperty
name="feature.xxx"
value="true"/>
</enablement>
</action>
