ESelectionService [message #1128157]

Looking at e(fx)clipse's contacts demo, I notice that it uses code like the following to hand over a selected item from one widget to another:

listView.getSelectionModel().selectedItemProperty().addListener(new ChangeListener<Object>() {
   @Override
   public void changed(ObservableValue<? extends Object> arg0, Object arg1, Object arg2) {
      application.getContext().set(Object.class, arg2);
   }
});

Could we use the ESelectionService as well? I tried to inject it into the relevant parts of the code but no instance was available. Can this service be used with e(fx)clipse?

Thanks,
Uwe

Yes it should be available. IIRC the ESelectionService is provided by
the e4-framework so we should get it for free, not sure why you don't
get one. Can you enter a bug for it.

Hi,

Looks like the creation of the ESelectionService was modified in Kepler,
in former versions it was created through a ContextFunction and now it
is done in the E4Application bootstrapping.

Fixed in master
