BugReport [message #1784562]

Hi,

today i found out, that if I replace the following code:

rdbtn.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
	public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {} });

with this one (Lambda):

rdbtn.addActionListener(e -> {});

Switching to the Design View. Right click on the rdbtn => no event handler.

So the windowBuilder can`t work with Lambda? Is there a new Version somewhere?
I use the Eclipse Oxygen.2 Release (4.7.2) with the WindowBuilder Core 1.9.0.

The WindowBuilder parser does not understand that syntax, so you have to use the older style if you want WindowBuilder to recognize that.

There are no current plans to update the parser to understand that syntax. That said, WindowBuilder is completely open source here at Eclipse, so a patch to extend the WindowBuilder parser to do that would be very welcome.

We are also always looking for folks who would like to become Eclipse committers and contribute to the project.

I downloaded the source code from Git but I don't think it is the entire source code. Where can I get the entire source code?

Thanks.
