sorting an Outline view [message #153583]

Hello!
In my current plugin I use
class OutlinePage extends ContentOutlinePage implements IAdaptable
as a outline class, where
ContentOutlinePage is
org.eclipse.ui.views.contentoutline.IContentOutlinePage
class. (it is a gef class)

The problem is I don't know how to sort the outline view using one of the
properties of the model objects.

ContentOutlinePage doen't provide any method to set the sorter,
is it possible to do using this class or other way?

Thanks in advance
Lukas

You can use EditPartViewer#setProperty() to enable sorting of a particular
kind. Then, your page needs to create an Aciton with the TOGGLE stlye and
put it on the page site's local toolbar.

You can have a single property listener for the viewer which tells all of
the treeeditparts to refresh their children.

Thanks for an advice.
What more I need is how to sort the elements in EditPartViewer object.
Elements are filled in using EditPartFactory object when
setContents(Object contents)
method is invoked, but I don't know how to get them and sort in an
appropriate order.

Thanks in advance
Best Regards
Lukas

getModelChildren() needs to return the model children in the sorted order
you want.
