Re: [handly-dev] progress report

[Vlad Dumitrescu <vladdu55@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks!

As usual, after some hours of desperation, I ask the question to the list and five minutes later I find the answer myself :-) The problem was that I still have the old model around and some classes have the same names and there was some confusion in a place.

regards,

Vlad

Hi Vlad,

 

Thanks for the progress report! I think we're going to learn a lot from this excercise, please keep reporting your findings. I'm keeping an eye on the erlide git repository too :-)

 

Regarding your question, it indeed looks like some adapters to IResource should be in place. Please have a look at the FooElementAdapterFactory in the basic example and corresponding extensions in plugin.xml.

 

Please let me know, on this list or privately, if there is something I can help you with.

 

Best Regards,

Vladimir

 

Hi!

I thought it may be nice to get an update for my progress with reimplementing my model with handly.

I got to the same level as step three of the tutorial, with a simplified model. It worked nicely, even if it feels that quite a lot of the code is still boilerplate and could be put in a library.

Now I have hit the "normal" problems when working with Eclipse: the APIs are hairy and one doesn't use them often enough to remember all the details, so I need to search again for how things are done :-) The particular example is the navigator - using the new model loses all the menus and actions and I'll have to figure out why. My guess is that the model elements should be adaptable to IResources (or the other way around), do you have any idea?

best regards,

Vlad
