Hi,

I'm trying to create a toolbar that will be filled in programmatically. Unfortunately I cannot add a new item to the toolbar due to ClassCastException. I try to add a button to the toolbar in the following way:

String commandId = "example.command";
MToolBar toolbar = ...

MHandledToolItem element = eModelService.createModelElement(MHandledToolItem.class);
element.setElementId("my.new.item.id");
element.setLabel("New item");

ParameterizedCommand wbCommand = getCommand(commandId);
element.setWbCommand(wbCommand);

toolbar.getChildren().add(element);



The last line throws the ClassCastException exception: 

java.lang.ClassCastException: org.eclipse.fx.ui.workbench.renderers.fx.DefToolItemRenderer$ToolItemImpl cannot be cast to org.eclipse.fx.ui.workbench.renderers.base.widget.WLayoutedWidget

I also encountered one more issue with the toolbar. After starting my application all toolbar buttons(that I declared in the Application.e4xmi) are disabled. I checked your demo application (e4 Media Application) and toolbar is disabled as well.

It looks like your Application.e4xmi is missing the
HandlerProcessingAddon. How did you bootstrap the the e4 application?

You can add it yourself next to the current addons:

<addons xmi:id="_CsUUmjTlEeOp9YyhHHv9bw"
elementId="org.eclipse.e4.ui.workbench.addons.HandlerProcessingAddon"
contributionURI="bundleclass://org.eclipse.e4.ui.workbench/org.eclipse.e4.ui.internal.workbench.addons.HandlerProcessingAddon"/>

Hi Tom,

I added the HandlerProcessingAddon and now the toolbar works like a charm. All buttons are enabled Smile

Thanks!

Hi Tom,

It looks that the problem with disabled buttons is not resolved. All buttons added to the toolbar programmatically are disabled(those buttons that are declared in the Application.e4xmi work fine).

String commandId = "example.command";
MToolBar toolbar = ...

MHandledToolItem element = eModelService.createModelElement(MHandledToolItem.class);
element.setElementId("my.new.item.id");
element.setLabel("New item");

ParameterizedCommand wbCommand = getCommand(commandId);
element.setWbCommand(wbCommand);

// Set true in order to enable the button.
element.setEnabled(true);
element.setVisible(true);
element.setToBeRendered(true);

toolbar.getChildren().add(element);


Even when I set following flags on "true" the problem is present:

element.setEnabled(true);
element.setVisible(true);
element.setToBeRendered(true);

I have also one question regarding the toolbar. Is it possible to make that toolbar's width will be the same as a window's width (set e.g. maxWidth="Infinity")?

Your code is wrong you need assign an MCommand

Hi Tom,

You are right. It should be MCommand.

Many thanks for your efforts.
