Hi,
how exactly are you displaying your error message (using a
ControlDecoration or so?)? I'm asking since the
ObservableValueEditingSupport class itself does not display the actual
error message so I guess you have implemented something yourself?
In any case, note that once a CellEditor looses the focus, the
underlying control used for editing (in your case a combo box) is
removed so if you're using something like a ControlDecoration, that one
will be gone as well. Also, if there's a validation error when the
CellEditor looses focus, the invalid value is never written to your
model so you probably don't have to display the error any more?
Let me know whether this helps somehow.
Regards,
Ovidio

Hi,
if you want to do a validation over multiple objects, you will most
probably have to use the MultiValidator class. A MultiValidator can be
added to a DataBindingContext as follows:
dbc.addValidationStatusProvider(new MultiValidator() {
protected IStatus validate() {
// validate all combobox values here.
}
});
This validation will thereby automatically show up in the message area
of the wizard. The special thing about the MultiValidator class is that
if you access any observables inside the validate() method, the
validate() method will be automatically triggered again when any of
those observables changes (that's a bit of magic :)). If you do not have
observables for all your comboboxes, you would have to manually trigger
the validate() method by calling MultiValidator#revalidate().
Let me know whether the part with the MultiValidator makes sense.
Regards,
Ovidio
