Extending an existing plug-in through a fragment [message #115698] Wed, 06 August 2008 08:41 Go to next message

Hi,

I want to add functionality to SWT, by adding new classes in the
org.eclipse.swt.widgets package.
One solution would be to create my custom version of SWT.
Another one, the preferred, is to create a fragment project.
The problem is that my new class:

package org.eclipse.swt.widgets

class TableEx extends Table {
....
}

cannot import anything from SWT (the host plugin).
The org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Table isn't recognized.

I need to also import stuff from the org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86
fragment.
I also fails.


Any help will be greatly appreciated

Maybe my problem is due to the fact I'm trying to use code in another
fragment from the same host.

I have tried to remove all signing info from org.eclipse.swt*.jar, in case
this is a problem, but it doesn't resolve anything.

Please, any hint from an Eclipse guru?

I've tried other alternatives to create a fragment:

1) to create a custom version of
org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86_3.4.0.v3448f.jar and it works, but the
automated build fails.

2) Another one is to place my custom class in a bundle that isn't a
fragment, but with this code:

@SuppressWarnings("restriction")
public class TableEx extends Table {

@Override int /*long*/ windowProc (int /*long*/ hwnd, int msg, int
/*long*/ wParam, int /*long*/ lParam) {
....
return super.windowProc(hwnd, msg, wParam, lParam);
}
}

My custom windowProc() is never called by Windows.
TableEx and Table are in the same package but different bundles.

Hi,

unfortunately, I cannot answer your question, but have a similar problem
:-) I just opened a thread
(news://news.eclipse.org:119/g7uicj$cqn$1@build.eclipse.org) in which I
ask the general version of your question. Hopefully we will receive an
answer soon.
