Hi Everyone,

I create a VE class of SWT composite. The class is named as CONTROL_TEST.
I create a VE class, and add the CONTROL_TEST class to the new VE class.
There are some properties of CONTROL_TEST in Property Panel. My question
is how to add a new property for CONTROL_TEST, and the property is visable
in Property Panel.

Thanks.

Liu Ming,

The properties are automatically detected based on the Java Bean
getters/setters available on your class. For instance if you had a
string property called name, you'd have to do the following:

private String name;

public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}

public String getName() {
return this.name;
}

Eclipse includes a source assistant to create getters & setters for
fields defined in your class. In your source, right click and select
Source -> Generate Getters and Setters...

Hope this helps,
- Jeff
