EMFForms: Is it possible to split the generated controls across several wizard pages? [message #1457654]

Hello!

Imagine I have an EMF model with 10 attributes.

I want EMFForms to generate the UI for entering those 10 values such that 5 of them are located on one wizard page, and the ohers on a second one.

I managed to embed EMF-based UIs into a single wizard page (using

ECPSWTView view = ECPSWTViewRenderer.INSTANCE.render(parent, myModelInstance);

), but how can I split the fields across several wizard pages?

Note that I want both pages to operate on the same EMF model.

Thanks in advance

Dmitri

Hi again!

Update: I found out that it is possible to create 2 different view models for 2 wizard pages. Let's say I have view model files "WizardPage1.view" and "WizardPage2.view".

In the ECPSWTViewRenderer interface there is a method

ECPSWTView render(Composite parent, EObject domainObject, VView viewModel) throws ECPRendererException;

So, if I manage to load VView from my files, I could create two UI objects for 2 wizard pages.

If someone knows, how I can create a VView or ViewModelContext for a particular view model (e. g. "WizardPage2.view"), please tell me.

Thanks

Dmitri

Hi,

view models can be loaded like any other EMF model instance. See this
tutorial http://eclipsesource.com/blogs/tutorials/emf-tutorial/
section data management.

Best regards

Jonas
