[EMF DataBinding] - Getter called outside realm of observable [message #1100630]

Hi,

My eclipse RCP Application working properly for several months.
But since Friday I have a bug that I could not resolve.

I have many views, with viewers. And the viewers are populate using jFace and EMF Databinding.

The code is very simply, like this :
...
master = new WritableValue();
master.setValue(anEOject);
...
ctx = new EMFDataBindingContext();
contentProvider = new ObservableListContentProvider();
...

The bug occured when creating new ObservableListContentProvider();

I know the source of the bug:
At this moment in views : Display.getCurrent() != Display.getDefault();

When created the provider => the default display is used
protected ObservableCollectionContentProvider(
IViewerUpdater explicitViewerUpdater) {
this.explicitViewerUpdater = explicitViewerUpdater;
...
display = Display.getDefault();

...

When checking if the realm is current : => the current dispay is used
public boolean isCurrent() {
return Display.getCurrent() == display;
}

The default Display is created by :
IDEWorkbenchPlugin.createProblemsViews => create the Default display in the Eventmanager Thread.

and after
Workbench.createAndRunWorkbench => create the default Realm using the Display in the main thread.

Is there a way to resolve this problem ?

Thanks for help.

I could reproduce the bug with the sample application : Mail template.

1. Create the application with the wizard
2. Just add this line in the View :
ObservableListContentProvider contentProvider = new ObservableListContentProvider();
3. Launch the application => OK. All works fine.

For reproduce the bug :
4. Add the org.eclipse.ui.ide in the launch configuration (i force the autostart a true for launch the plugin, in my ownn product RCP the autostart is at the default value)
5. Launch the application => Reproduce the bug.

For information : my target Platform is a 3.7

Really this bug does not talk about realms.

Well this means there are 2 display instance which sounds ultimately
wrong. So this sounds much more like a platform bug, right? There should
never ever be 2 Displays.

Tom,
Thanks for reply.

Well there is two things :
1. Effectively i have two display created :

-> One by the IDEWorkbenchPlugin#createProblemsViews()
Try to acquire the current display. In my case current display is null.
Then create and acquire the Default display. This display become the default in the Display.class
All this code was run in the EventManager Thread.

-> The second by the Workbench => This display is associated to the main Thread.

This behavior is strange.

2. The second things seems to be a bug in ObservableCollectionContentProvider.
The constructor use the Default display by this call :
display = Display.getDefault();

Why not using the current Display associated with the current Thread ?
