Hi, I have a dialog that displays a GEF ScrollingGraphicalViewer within a dialog. Can someone please tell me how I can access the edit parts using SWTBot? Is this even possible? Thanks, Barry.

Hi Barry,

Have a look to the trunk on svn. I recently integrated a patch that add a SWTBotGefViewer to wrap any GEF viewer.
So you should be able to access them :).

Regards,

Mariot

Hi Mariot,
Thanks for your quick response. Forgive my ignorance, but I have never downloaded SWTBot straight from SVN. Should I be using the repository in http://swtbot4gef.googlecode.com/svn ? If so, I do not see SWTBotGefViewer. Regards, Barry

Hi Mariot,
I believe I now have the latest source - Revision 603. I found the SWTBotGefViewer class, so I believe I am on the right track. Now as I mentioned, my Gef Viewer is embedded within a dialog. I see method in SWTGefBot gefViewer, that takes the title of a workbench part as an argument. Is there another way to get the viewer? perhaps I am missing something here. Thanks again, Barry

You don't necessarily need to use the SWTGetBot#gefViewer method to use
a SWTBotGefViewer; these method are there to help when the viewer is
embedded in an editor or view. Even then, it's a best-effort attempt and
the editor or view must respect a certain contract for it to work
(namely, getAdapter(GraphicalViewer.class) must return the required
GraphicalViewer).

In your case, you need to find yourself the GraphicalViewer and
construct a new instance of SWTBotGefViewer. The hard part is getting
hold of the GraphicalViewer, because it is not a widget... and I mean,
really hard. The only solution I see requires you to modify the
application under test a little. You will need to attach the
GraphicalViewer as the data field of a widget. For example, let's say
you have a custom dialog, in its createContents() method you could do:

getShell().setData(graphicalViewer);

then, in your tests, you could do:

final SWTBotShell shell = bot.shell("");
GraphicalViewer graphicalViewer = syncExec(new Result<GraphicalViewer>()
{
public GraphicalViewer run()
{
return (GraphicalViewer) shell.widget.getData();
}
});
SWTBotGefViewer viewer = new SWTBotGefViewer(graphicalViewer);

If you can't modify your application or can't attach the viewer to a
widget, then I really have no clue how you could achieve it...

Hope this helps.

Hi Pascal, That actually works beautifully! And it was not hard at all (at least in my case) to implement. Many thanks for your suggestion and best regards, Barry

No apologies necessary, I am impressed with you guys. One last question, do you know when these changes will be made available in the Helios Update Site? Thanks.
