Add File to project - Event [message #1816845] Fri, 08 November 2019 03:49 Go to next message

Hello,

Is there a way to find the event when a user creates a new file(file -> other(header/source/..)? I know how to capture the event of the resource changed, but how can I specifically get the added file event?

Thank you!

All changes to the workspace produce resource deltas so definitely adding any new file will produce a delta. Of course the delta is a tree and you must visit (IResourceDeltaVisitor) the delta tree to see all the things that have changed, including IResourceDelta.ADDED.

Where should the code be placed? Some say to place it in the view class, but I am using the CommonNavigator class as a view so I cannot edit it.

Should I create a new view class that extends from the CommonNavigator?

Thank you!

You must listen to the workspace itself. E.g., in an EMF generated editor we have a listener like this:

https://git.eclipse.org/c/emf/org.eclipse.emf.git/tree/plugins/org.eclipse.emf.ecore.editor/src/org/eclipse/emf/ecore/presentation/EcoreEditor.java#n507

Add it like this:

https://git.eclipse.org/c/emf/org.eclipse.emf.git/tree/plugins/org.eclipse.emf.ecore.editor/src/org/eclipse/emf/ecore/presentation/EcoreEditor.java#n1928

And remove it when the editor is disposed:

https://git.eclipse.org/c/emf/org.eclipse.emf.git/tree/plugins/org.eclipse.emf.ecore.editor/src/org/eclipse/emf/ecore/presentation/EcoreEditor.java#n2108

I'm not sure how you code is structured to say where you should add logic...
