[EMF Forms] Master Detail View invisible/does not show up [message #1733210]

Hi,

currently I'm playing around a bit with EMF Forms and I'm pretty impressed! Good job! However, unfortunately I have some problems to get the master detail view working (that's the one I'm mostly interessted in).

What have I done?

Step 1:
- I installed a fresh instance of Mars.2 Modeling Edition,
- generated the makeithappen e4 demo projects and
- launched the e4 application
==> Everything works perfectly!

Step 2:
- Then I deleted all controls from the User.view model,
- added the Tree Master Detail Control,
- previewed the modified view (the master detail view is visible),
- added the "org.eclipse.emfforms.swt.treemasterdetail" bundle to the viewmodel bundle and to the product configuration and
- launched the e4 application
==> The applications starts without any error and the application panel shows up, but has no content (=no master detail view).

Do you have any idea what goes wrong here? Do I have to add some more bundles to the launch configuration?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Gerd

Hello Gerd,

is the org.eclipse.emf.ecp.view.treemasterdetail.model bundle part of your runconfig?

Refer to discussion https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=494398

Hi Gerd,
yes you are probably missing the org.eclipse.emf.ecp.view.treemasterdetail.ui.swt bundle and its dependencies.
The bundle you added provides a TreeMasterDetail API which can be used to add a Tree with a detail pane which internally uses emfforms.
The naming is a bit confusing, we will fix this with the 2.0 release.

Cheers,
Eugen

Hi Ram, hi Eugen

thanks for the replies. I think I already tried this before I posted to this forum, but I'm not sure Wink

.

However, I tried this now, but after adding the above-mentioned bundles to the launch configuration the application start fails immediately (unfortunately without any meaningful message). Again, removing the master-detail-view from the viewmodel fixes the problems, the other controls seem to work as expected.

After debugging a bit deeper to find the possible cause I discovered that the application starts fails due to an SWTError (org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: No more handles). You can catch the exception by setting a breakpoint at org.eclipse.e4.core.internal.di.MethodRequestor (line:65).

Should I open a bug report for this? Or is it an already known bug?

Again, thanks for your feedback!

Regards,
Gerd

Hi,

the application starts fails because of an internal SWTError ("No more handles") that is caused by a recursion in TreeMasterDetailSWTRenderer.renderControl.

I filed a bug report (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=495480).

Cheers,
Gerd
