Hello,
There is a class Data inherit from an abstract class CObject which has
more attributes than is needed in Data,and after generating code from
Ecore model,I try to delete some of the unnecessary properties by
overriding getPropertyDescriptors() in the DataProvider.
I add a number of removeXXXPropertyDescriptor(object);
and corresponding methods like:
private void removeTypePropertyDescriptor(Object object) {
itemPropertyDescriptors.remove(6);
}
the number which is removed should refer to specific attributes in the
super class.but how to know which number match which attributes?
Thanks a lot!
Ye

Hello Tobias,
Yes ,this is a easy way.but these common attributes are only shown under
the super class Object and are not shown under sub classes .how to set
'Property type ' to specific attributes under certain sub class?
e.g.super class has attribute Type,but in sub class Data,I don't want Type
be shown.But in the .genmodel,Type is not shown under Data,how can I set
'Property type' to Data?
Regards
ye

Hello all -
I think that you nearly solved this yourself in the initial message... but
try this solution, I hope it works for you...
1.Create a utility method somewhere like this -
public boolean removeDescriptor(Object object, List descriptors,
EAttribute attribute)
{
Assert.isNotNull(object);
Assert.isNotNull(descriptors);
Assert.isNotNull(attribute);
ItemPropertyDescriptor descriptor = null;
for (Iterator iterator = descriptors.iterator(); iterator.hasNext();)
{
ItemPropertyDescriptor tempDescriptor = (ItemPropertyDescriptor)
iterator
.next();
if (tempDescriptor.getFeature(object) == attribute)
{
descriptor = tempDescriptor;
break;
}
}
if (descriptor != null)
{
descriptors.remove(descriptor);
return true;
}
return false;
}
2. Use the utilty method - passing in the object, the current list of
descriptors and the EAttribute you want to remove...
eg.
/**
* This returns the property descriptors for the adapted class.
* <!-- begin-user-doc -->
* <!-- end-user-doc -->
* @generated NOT
*/
public List getPropertyDescriptors(Object object)
{
if (itemPropertyDescriptors == null)
{
List descriptors = super.getPropertyDescriptors(object);
// Remove the type property -
MyItemProviderUtils
.getInstance()
.removeDescriptor(
object,
descriptors,
ModelPackage.Literals.COBJECT_TYPE);
MyItemProviderUtils
.getInstance()
.removeDescriptor(
object,
descriptors,
ModelPackage.Literals.COBJECT_SOMEOTHERTYPE);
addBlahBlahBlahPropertyDescriptor(object);
}
return itemPropertyDescriptors;
}
That should allow you to selectively remove properties from the property
sheet based upon there EAttribute...
Hope that helps
Kristian.
