Expand Outline View on startup [message #876323]

Hey,

I would like to expand the Outline View by default. I found this topic [1], but it seams to be outdated. Then I tried following code snippet:

public class MyDSLOutlineTreeProvider extends DefaultOutlineTreeProvider {

	@Inject
	private OutlinePage outlinePage;

	// skip Root-Element
	protected void _createChildren(DocumentRootNode parentNode, Program program) {
		this.outlinePage.getTreeViewer().expandAll();
                // further code for my outline view

	}
}

Unfortunately, this call produces a SWTExeption, here is the stack trace:

org.eclipse.swt.SWTException: Invalid thread access

How do I expand all nodes on start up? Thank you! Smile

Hi,

what about

package org.xtext.example.mydsl.ui;

import org.eclipse.xtext.ui.editor.outline.impl.OutlinePage;

public class MyOutlinePage extends OutlinePage {
	
	@Override
	protected int getDefaultExpansionLevel() {
		return Integer.MAX_VALUE;
	}

}

public class MyDslUiModule extends org.xtext.example.mydsl.ui.AbstractMyDslUiModule {
	public MyDslUiModule(AbstractUIPlugin plugin) {
		super(plugin);
	}
	
	public Class<? extends IContentOutlinePage> bindIContentOutlinePage() {
		return MyOutlinePage.class;
	}
}
