Re: [Mylyn-Integrators] - help with adding custom parts in task editor

[Peter Stibrany <peter@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

you need to override createPartDescriptors method of
AbstractTaskEditorPage, and add descriptor for your custom editor
part. Your implementation should look similar to this:

@Override
protected Set<TaskEditorPartDescriptor> createPartDescriptors() {
    Set<TaskEditorPartDescriptor> partDescriptors =
super.createPartDescriptors();

    TaskEditorPartDescriptor desc = new TaskEditorPartDescriptor(YOUR_PART_ID) {
        @Override
        public AbstractTaskEditorPart createPart() {
            return new YourTaskEditorPart();
        }
    };
    desc.setPath(PATH_COMMENTS);

    partDescriptors.add(desc);

    return partDescriptors;
}

Path specifies where in task editor your part will be places. Existing
paths (references from createParts() method of AbstractTaskEditorPage)
are PATH_HEADER, PATH_ATTRIBUTES, PATH_ATTACHMENTS, PATH_COMMENTS,
PATH_PLANNING, PATH_ACTIONS, PATH_PEOPLE.

To set your attributes as read only, simply set attribute metadata to
read only. See "Showing custom attributes via TaskEditorAttributePart"
section of http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/Mylyn/Integrator_Reference#Task_editor

Hope this helps,
