How can I have this widget effect in Eclipse platform? [message #458861] Sun, 24 July 2005 08:51 Go to next message

Well, my project now demands such a widget in user interface with the
requirements as follows:
This widget can display both text, icon, and even button. If the text on
it is too long to display completely, omission marks should replace the
redundant words. It is also selectable which is similar to a cell in the
JTable, but it should support displaying icons as I said, and should only
be scaled in size horizontally but never vertically.

Fortunately, I find that a component in the dialog shown during build or
update process meets my request. Does anybody who is familiar with SWT know
how this is managed? That is, which widget(s) should I use? Or can Swing
meet my demand? By the way, here is the capture image of eclipse dialog I
concerned: http://freehost21.websamba.com/utarget/Eclipse_snap.jpg


Many many thanks!

Hi, according to me, you have to use an IProgressMonitor. Have a look at
this article, section "progress, cancelation ...."

Thanks, but my concern is mainly about how to implement this label using
SWT. The progress bar doesn't matter indeed. I've already solved this using
Swing. My approach is to use a JPanel as a JList's ListCellRenderer.
However, there's a serious problem: if I add a JButton in this renderer, the
button doesn't work at all. The renderer just renders the cell in the JList
but is not a real component, so the button in it has no functionality. How
can I make the button fire action event when I click it?
