EFS question ... [message #327549]

Hi all,
Not sure this is the right forum where post questions on EFS . if no please
just let me know .

The question is about the use of EFS . and what I have done in mapping
(using EFS) my Object database.

Following the examples I have found I built the XXXFileStore and linked it
at the resources view .
everything was just working fine (I can see the tree nicely created and I
could open modify and save back content files and so on)

But

What about creating my own view?

I just created a simple TreeViewer with its own provider based on
XXXFileStore input
It worked just fine but I can only open file (using the file store) using
the default text editor .

I have seen that the OpenAction from the resource view works on
IDE.openEditor(IWorkbenchPage, IFile).

Do I really need to implement my own XFile object that implements the IFile
interface .
Probably there are things not clear for me and what I'm trying to do is
wrong .

If someone could give me any information . I would really appreciate it.

Regards

Kar

Kar,

There are other open methods that take an IEditorInput or a URI so you
might try those. Here's a snip from of some utility code in
org.eclipse.emf.edit.ui.uti.EditUIUtil we wrote recently to make opening
editors in RCP easier for us:

IWorkbench workbench = PlatformUI.getWorkbench();
IWorkbenchPage page =
workbench.getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage();
IEditorPart editorPart = page.openEditor(editorInput,
workbench.getEditorRegistry().getDefaultEditor(uri.lastSegme nt()).getId());

Hi Ed and thanks for your help ...

the point is ... what is the right way to create the EDITOR INPUT, do I need
to create one?

I was hoping that using efs I could deal with the logic of reading the
content from the db using the xxxfilestore ... (my previous version was
only using custom editor input ...)

in some examples I have seen the use of NonExistingFileEditorInput (but not
sure this is the correct approach) and all the classes from EditUIUtil deal
with IFile that I haven't got :(

what shall I do?
thanks in advance

Kar
