You should do
handleValue(..., IBuildObject configuration, ..){
...
if(configuration instanceof IConfiguration){
ManagedBuildManager.setOption((IConfiguration)configuration, ...);
} else if (configuration instanceof IResourceConfiguration){
ManagedBuildManager.setOption((IResourceConfiguration)configuration,
...);
}
...
}

Just tried that...
1. I had to add a dependency on org.eclipse.cdt.core and import
org.eclipse.cdt.core.AbstractCExtension to get ManagedBuildManager
correctly.
2. Where do I get an IConfiguration from? I get passed an IBuildObject and
IOptionHolder and an IOption?
Thanks,

Hi Mikhail,
I have written an IManagedOptionValueHandler. I have added a new
optionCategory
and options to that OptionCategory that uses the valueHandler and
valueHandlerExtraArgument extension. I have added boolean and string
options.
IManagedOptionValueHandler gets passed IOptionHolder and IOption.
From within the valuehandler I am using IOption.setValue(). Using these
interfaces I am almost getting the behaviour I want... If it setValue()
on the
boolean option, the corresponding checkbox in the GUI is updated.
However, if I
setValue() on the string, the corresponding textbox in the GUI is not
updated
until I interact with the GUI in some way (check the booleans
checkbox, for
example).
*/[Mikhail] This seems like a bug. Try using the ManagedBuildManager API
instead of IOption (see my comment below) and if this does not help
please raise a bug./*
I have no docs for ManagedBuildManager so I don't know when/how to use
it. As I
am passed an IOption (and it is working - mostly - for me) I am using
that.
*/[Mikhail] The org.eclipse.cdt.managedbuilder.core.ManagedBuildManager
is the entry-point for all MBS core operations. It should be used for
setting option values as well. You should not call IOption.setValue
because it will not work for the case of extension options (i.e. options
whose values are not overridden by user settings)./*
*/The ManagedBuildManager contains the following methods that should be
used for option value modifications (see JavaDoc comments for those
methods for more detail):/*
*/ /*
*public* *static* IOption setOption(IConfiguration config,
IHoldsOptions holder, IOption option, *boolean* value)
*public* *static* IOption setOption(IResourceConfiguration
resConfig, IHoldsOptions holder, IOption option, *boolean* value)
*public* *static* IOption setOption(IConfiguration config,
IHoldsOptions holder, IOption option, String value)
*public* *static* IOption setOption(IResourceConfiguration resConfig,
IHoldsOptions holder, IOption option, String value)
*public* *static* IOption setOption(IConfiguration config,
IHoldsOptions holder, IOption option, String[] value)
*public* *static* IOption setOption(IResourceConfiguration
resConfig, IHoldsOptions holder, IOption option, String[] value)
*/ /*
*/The “IBuildObject configuration” argument passed to your value handler
is either an IConfiguration or an IResourceConfiguration. You should do
instanceof and call the proper ManagedBuildManager.setOption() method.
Please let me know if you have any questions with using the
ManagedBuildManager.setOption()/*
*/ /*
*/Regards,/*
