My DirectEdit works only if I override the DirectEditManager.commit() method?! [message #167828]

Hi,

1.)
------------
I have copy code snippets for direct edit a Label ....works fine.
(The code snippet has overriden the commit() method of DirectEditManager)

2.)
-----------
I have copy the code for the StickyNote in the digital-simulator example and the
new entered text of the direct edit will NOT transfer to my Model!

I always receive the old value!

protected Command <MyDirectEditPolicy>.getDirectEditCommand(DirectEditRequest request)
{
String labelText = (String)request.getCellEditor().getValue();
System.out.println("NEW VALUE:"+labelText);
// ERROR labelText is the old value!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
.
.
.
.
return cmd;
}

3.)
-----------
I override the commit() in MyDirectEditManager of the digital-simulator code snippet
and it work fine!

protected void <MyDirectEditManager>.commit()
{
if (committing)
return;
committing = true;
try
{
getCellEditor().getControl().setVisible(false);
if (isDirty())
{
CommandStack stack = getEditPart().getViewer().getEditDomain().getCommandStack();
Command command = getEditPart().getCommand(getDirectEditRequest());
if (command != null && command.canExecute())
stack.execute(command);
}
}
finally
{
bringDown();
committing = false;
}
}

Why works the DirectEdit in digitalSimulator and why must I override the
commit() method?!

greetings

Andreas

Don't know what could be causing this. But the way it's done in the logic
example works there and elsewhere too. What code-base are you using?

The only difference I noticed between your commit() method and
DirectEditManager's is that you're invoking
getCellEditor().getControl().setVisible(false). Are you saying this is
what's making it work? What happens if you remove that line of code from
the overridden method?

Hi,

1.)
I have removed the line

getCellEditor().getControl().setVisible(false)

and it works fine.

2.)
I have add the line

eraseFeedback()

and I have the problem. I always retrieve the old value
if the element!

I use eclipse 3.1 with GEF 3.0.1

greetings
