Modify Project Facets| without GUI [message #212994]

Hi,

Is it possible to modify the project facets of a faceted project without
using the wizard but just API.

Specifically need to install Dynamic Web and java facets.

Using ProjectFacetsManager.getProjectFacet() I can obtain the facets
Using ProjectFacetsManager.getProjectFacet("[facet info]").getVersion() I
can obtain the version of the facet.
I can get the action definitions for each facetversion using
ProjectFacetsManager.getProjectFacet().getVersion().getActio nDefinitions()
So far so good.

What next?

Raster,

The best way to achieve the behaviour would be creating a preset. A preset
translates into a new configuration that user can pick from the UI.

You can find some information about the facet preset here:
http://mail.eclipse.org/articles/Article-
BuildingProjectFacets/tutorial.html#defining.presets

In 2.0 there was an ddition for dynamic preset, you may also want to look
into that:

I can get the IActionDefinition action definitions for each facetversion
using
ProjectFacetsManager.getProjectFacet().getVersion().getActio nDefinitions()

An action can be obtained by using new Action( Action.Type.INSTALL,
facetversion, null )

Action instances can be added to a set so that the faceted project can be
moified with it.

This seems almost enough. What is missing?
Where can I read about it?

Ohh Sorry.. I missed the part where you say without using the wizard.

The best place to read about how to work with facets is one of the
tutorials I mentioned earlier.

Angel thats not helping. No?

I repeat:-

Using ProjectFacetsManager.create() I can obtain an instance of a
IFacetedProject.
Using ProjectFacetsManager.getProjectFacet() I can obtain the facets
Using ProjectFacetsManager.getProjectFacet("[facet
info]").getVersion() I can obtain the version of the facet.
I can get the IActionDefinition action definitions for each
facetversion using

ProjectFacetsManager.getProjectFacet().getVersion().getActio nDefinition
s()

An action can be obtained by using new Action( Action.Type.INSTALL,
facetversion, null )

Action instances can be added to a set so that the faceted project can
be moified with it.

You are very close. The last part of the puzzle is
IFacetedProject.modify(). That's where you pass in the actions that you
want to apply.

Hi,

I knew that. I was lost in trying to understand what properties to set in
the
actionDefinition.createConfigObject() method.

I figured that out.
Thanks.

Glad to make your aqquaintance. :). Seen your name so often in so many of
the WTP Java files.

Thanks.
