Hi all,
we wrote a tutorial on how to use WindowBuilder with EMF databinding on
a TableViewer. Here is the link
http://www.rcp-vision.com/?p=1123&lang=en
The persistence is based on CDO over a MySQL database.
Any feedback about the article is welcome.
Thank you

Hi Eric,
thank you!
I am trying to do the same with a TreeViewer, but cannot go beyond the
step showed in the enclosed figure: checkbox Text(String) seems
unselectable.
Are there any guide available on how to use WindowBuilder databinding
with the various JFace viewers?
Thank you again.
Cheers

Vincenzo

I would recommend the WindowBuilder Data Binding docs and tutorial.

Hi all,

Thank you Vincenzo for this nice tutorial. I just have a small problem with the bindings as none of my EMF model elements appear in the list when I click on the EMF Bindings mode.

Is there something special to reference an Ecore metamodel in WindowBuilder ? The editor and my EMF model are in the same plugin for the moment.

Hi, very nice tutorial indeed.
So I managed to link a bunch of single fields to my EMF models.
Nevertheless I'm still having problems : I tried the same with tableviewers and got stuck :
- I added into the user-interface class a variable of the class EMyTable (as generated by EMF)
- when it comes to the bindings, I select the tableviewer on the left, input, and on the right click emf button, select my variable, and the content properties.
