autocompletion ICellEditor (used in a NatTableEditor) [message #817087]

Hello,

I'm creating a table to display some elements of my model. In order to do so, I'm using a NatTableEditor. I would like some of my cells to be editable simply by editing the text their label, with an auto-completion feature.

For instance, let's say my model contains a object named Renault from a class Car.

The user clicks in the cell of the NatTable that can display Cars. He starts writing "Re" and then thanks to the completion, the text becomes "Renault". By pressing enter, the cell is linked to the Renault EObject.

Does it seem possible ? Has it been done in an existing ICellEditor ?

Thank you for your answers.

Olivier

EMF's properties page use cell editors.

Hello,

> Does it seem possible ?

Yes, it seems. The auto-completion should have to be implemented in a dedicated SWT component and this SWT component has to be declared as an EMF Facet cell editor.

As far as I know, not in the EMF Facet project. There is a few documentation in the following documentation page : http://help.eclipse.org/indigo/topic/org.eclipse.emf.facet.widgets.nattable.doc/devdoc.html?path=23_1_0_2#How_to_add_your_own_cell_editors
