[Databinding] How to bind multiple selected items to a bean? [message #297537]

Hi,

I tried to use the data binding framework in two scenarios:
- getting the list of selected items of a TableViewer into a bean.
As far as I can see from the source code multiple selected items
aren't supported yet by the ViewersUpdatableFactory, or did I
missed some simple solution ?

- connecting the checkedElements() property of a CheckboxTableViewer
to a bean property able to return a java.util.List of objects. I
wasn't able to build a successful connection between these two items.

All of my attempts to use the framework failed miserably, so any
idea would be appreciated. Is there any documentation out yet for
the dbf apart from reading the sourcecode and the scenario documents
on the wiki ?

Regards,
Axel

Hi Axel,

Thanks for reporting this. I have filed two bugs for the missing support:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=124683
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=124684

Right now, this is all documentation we have:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/JFace_Data_Binding

What could we do better to improve your experience with the data binding
framework?

Boris.

Sorry for the delayed response. I had been away due to multiple deaths
in my family.

Did you see my blog entry on getting started with data binding?
