hello,

i have a basic implementation of ElementListSelectionDialog, like following.

ElementListSelectionDialog dialog = 
  new ElementListSelectionDialog(shell, new LabelProvider());
dialog.setElements(new String[] { "Linux", "Mac", "Windows" });
dialog.setTitle("Which operating system are you using");
dialog.open();

the dialog open, but the list is empty, and when we type something in the search field, it nothing happens.

i don't have any exception,I have declared dependency to a package org.eclipse.ui.dialogs

I read somewhere that the selection dialog are directly reusable after 4.2 release of eclipse.

someone was confronted a similar problem ?

I deeply examined the ElementListSelectionDialog class, and I found that the problem comes from FiltredList not draw the element provided via LabelProvider.


FilteredList list = new FilteredList(workArea,SWT.BORDER | SWT.V_SCROLL | SWT.H_SCROLL,new LabelProvider(),false,true,true);
		 list.setLayoutData(new GridData(GridData.FILL,
				GridData.BEGINNING, true, false, 1, 1));
list.setFilter(""); //$NON-NLS-1$		
list.setElements( new Object[] {"Item 1","Item 2","Item 3","Item"});


I don't know why it does not work for me, but one thing is sure is that it works fine in the Eclipse IDE.

I think I have no alternative, i must define my own Dialog based on a TableViewer

The FilteredList depends on Eclipse 3.x Job API which itself depends on the Eclipse 3.x platform to be running... In effect I ended up implementing a list selection dialog using a viewer, too...

I finally implemented my own dialog for selection based on and TitleAreaDialog and JFace TableViewer, I was inspired from the ElementListSelectionDialog source I defined it so as to be standard and reusable in any Eclipse project, and I think it is better it is much more flexible
