Adding a list with multiple Columns to a PreferencePage [message #503553] Mon, 14 December 2009 11:58 Go to next message

The standard PDE way of adding Preference is to use field editors (for Boolean, String, Integer..) and subclass FieldEditorPreferencePage.

I'd like to integrate a list similar to the 'Network Connections' List in Preferences. A Basic List with Add / Edit / Remove functionality for multiple columns.

I'm intrested how this List is implemented
I tryed to find the Class Presenting the "Network Connections List"
in the Eclipse sourceBuild by searching for strings appearing on the UI but no results.

Can you help?

Why don't you implement it by yourself? It does not take a lot of time.
You can create child composite
Composite child = new Composite(getFieldEditorParent(), SWT.NONE);
and then add FiledEditors and you own controls( for ex. List) to it.

With the best regards,
Irn.

I wanted to check if there is a List I could use I wasn't sure there is no as I'm new to PDE.
There is a TemplatePreferencePage http:// help.eclipse.org/help32/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/r eference/api/org/eclipse/ui/texteditor/templates/TemplatePre ferencePage.html but it has too much functionality (Export,Import.. Buttons)

So I'll have to implement it on my own
