Hi,
I have my own Content Navigator with custom Content and Label Provider.
I have declare classes to represent the different items of the custom project e.g.
CustomProject
CustomProjectFolder1
CustomProjectFolder1.2
CustomProjectFolder2
My problem is that I want also except of this folder structure to dynamically add files (IFiles) to the folders.I created a new wizard to do that but these IFiles dont appear in the folders. The files are created ok since i can see them in eclipse standard navigator.
I added as trigger Points and possibleChildren the IFile
following the eclipse help page
(http://help.eclipse.org/helios/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.isv%2Freference%2Fextension-points%2Forg_eclipse_ui_navigator_navigatorContent.html)
but the ContentNavigator never gets called for an IFile.
<navigatorContent
activeByDefault="true"
contentProvider="navigator.ContentProvider"
id="myplugin.ui.navigatorContent"
labelProvider="navigator.LabelProvider"
name="Custom Navigator Content"
priority="highest">
<triggerPoints>
<or>
<instanceof
value="org.eclipse.core.resources.IWorkspaceRoot">
</instanceof>
<instanceof
value="org.eclipse.core.resources.IFile">
</instanceof>
</or>
</triggerPoints>
<possibleChildren>
<or>
<instanceof
value="org.eclipse.core.resources.IWorkspaceRoot" />
<instanceof
value="myCustomProjectElement" />
<instanceof
value="org.eclipse.core.resources.IFile" />
</or>
</possibleChildren>
</navigatorContent>
Is this the correct way to declare the IFile Element in the content provider?
Any suggestions of what is the problem..?
I tried also adding a new content extension to the content of type:
<contentExtension pattern="org.eclipse.ui.navigator.resourceContent" />
and although i can see that the navigator has as content Resources and the Custom Navigator Content still the IFiles dont appear...
Another idea is to create a new CustomElement and IFile will be just a property of that element but i am not sure how to dynamically add a new CustomElement as a child in the ContentProvider.

Mat-
Were you able to solve your problem? I have not worked much with CNF but would be happy to help if you are still in need of assistance.
What comes to mind is if (presumably) the JFace tree-viewer is receiving an update.
Which is assuming that your content provider is able to realize the changes.
I could be way off base, but let me know and I would be happy to collaborate.
