Hi,

I would like know if somebody has already used http://eclipse.org/nebula/ in a RAP Application. I would like use http://eclipse.org/nebula/widgets/datechooser/datechooser.php from Nebula to manage date field.

For the moment, I have implemented http://code.google.com/p/xdocreport/source/browse/?repo=eclipse#git%2Fcommons%2Ffr.opensagres.eclipse.forms%2Fsrc%2Ffr%2Fopensagres%2Feclipse%2Fforms%2Fwidgets which is a Composite with Text + Button which opens a dialog which display a SWT DateTime, but I find that http://eclipse.org/nebula/widgets/datechooser/datechooser.php is more powerful.

I have not tested Nebula with RAP but I have seen the Nebula code http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/viewvc.cgi/org.eclipse.swt.nebula/org.eclipse.nebula.widgets.datechooser/src/org/eclipse/nebula/widgets/datechooser/DateChooserCombo.java?view=markup&root=Technology_Project and there is :

static {
buttonImage = new Image(Display.getCurrent(),
DateChooserCombo.class.getResourceAsStream(IMAGE));
}

If I have understand, this code cannot work with RAP because Display belongs to a session, and buttonImage is static value. What do you think about that?

Thank a lot for your help.

Regards Angelo

Hi Angelo,

that's right. You would have to change the code to create a new image on
creation and destroy it on destruction of the widget. Apart from that,
it should be simple to find out whether the code compiles with RAP.

Regards, Ralf
