RCP with platform resources [message #193976]

Hi,

The RCP app that is generated uses files I want to use platform resources
instead. How can I achieve that?

Is the difference in using createFileURI or createPlatformResourceURI?

Or can you tell me how to omit the long paths in the tabs of the editor?
Then files are a solution too...

Thanks for your answer,

Marsha

Marsha,

You can explicitly construct a URIEditorInput with any name you like:

public URIEditorInput(URI uri, String name)
{
this.uri = uri;
this.name = name;
}

Hi Ed,

Thanks for your hint. I had a look at this but where can I add this into
my generated RCP app?

Marsha,

I don't know. What I would do is set a breakpoint in the constructors
for that class (if it's indeed being used for the editor input) and see
who's calling it and therefore, where the best place is to specialize
how it's called.

Hi Ed,

So if I get you right, I have to add a class that implements
URIEditorInput and set the name to let's say XYZ. Then I have to get my
new class to be invoked and then the tabs in the editors show XYZ instead
of file:/C:/temp/.../XYZ.test_diagram?

I was looking for a difference in the code that gets generated for the IDE
and the RCP version of GMF since in die IDE the tabs only show
xyz.test_diagram and in the RPC they show the whole path...but I couldn't
find a class that implements URIEditorInput and sets the name.

Thanks,
Marsha
