Setting error message on display converter failure. [message #1448854]

Hello,

I am attempting to create a Decimal Display converter, so that we can bubble up parsing errors to the users.

If there is a parsing error I throw a ConversionFailedException with the appropriate message. This Exception is being caught by the Abstract Cell Editor, and displayError is being called. In the RenderErrorHandling class, the decoration is being set correctly, but the error message is not being set on the decoration.

This causes the last error message that was set to be shown on the error decoration, when the user hovers over the decoration.

(Let me know if you didn't follow that)

Is there a better way to get these parsing errors set on the error decoration? I am hoping there is a way to solve this without having to create my own RenderErrorHandling class.

Thanks,
Elvis.

Hi,

thanks for reporting. Looks like a bug to me, so I created a bug ticket and fixed it right away.

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=447974

It will be released with 1.2.0 in January. Until then you will either need to update to a SNAPSHOT version or implement a custom RenderErrorHandling as a workaround until you are able to use 1.2.0.

Greez,
Dirk
