Hi,

I haven't managed to have the preference page for model validation
included in an RCP diagram app.

(By default, the validation feedback is a dialog, with a very cryptic
message, I would never like to confront an end-user with). So, how do I
force validation feedback to be on the console?

I have looked in the templates for preference page generation, model
validation is not a standard preference page, so how does this code get
generated? (Is it actually still supported?).


«DEFINE extendsList FOR gmfgen::GenStandardPreferencePage-»
«IF gmfgen::StandardPreferencePages::General = kind-»
extends
org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui.preferences.DiagramsPrefe rencePage«-»
«ELSEIF gmfgen::StandardPreferencePages::Appearance = kind-»
extends
org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui.preferences.AppearancePre ferencePage«-»
«ELSEIF gmfgen::StandardPreferencePages::Connections = kind-»
extends
org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui.preferences.ConnectionsPr eferencePage«-»
«ELSEIF gmfgen::StandardPreferencePages::Printing = kind-»
extends
org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui.preferences.PrintingPrefe rencePage«-»
«ELSEIF gmfgen::StandardPreferencePages::RulersAndGrid = kind-»
extends
org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui.preferences.RulerGridPref erencePage«-»
«ENDIF-»
«ENDDEFINE»


My GMF gen:

is:

Validation Decorators : true
Validation Enabled : true
Live validation UI Feedback : true

Validation Decorator Provider priority : Medium

Validation Provider Priority : Seems to be deprecated, so not sure if
this any use?


Also:


Any of these bugs has got to do with it? (from GMF 2.1 release notes):

Custom Preferences and Preference pages

Bugzilla 250772 Custom Preferences Bugzilla 247311 Boilerplate code for
custom Preference Pages

Besides, not all the preference pages are generated now, see Bugzilla
247542


Thanks! Christophe bouhier

Hi Christophe,

you might find something useful in org.eclipse.gmf.codegen/src/org/eclipse/gmf/codegen/util/Gen erator.java.

I haven't checked that yet, but that's where most of the generated files are actually created.

Cheers
Rob

Hi Christophe,

the model validation belongs to EMF validation framework. GMF does not
need to generate a preference page therefore. It uses the validation
extension point(s) and the validation framework presents the preferences
based on the existing extensions.
