Common Navigator and Tabbed Properties View [message #335381]

Hello,

the common navigator class should not be sub-classed.

Now I want to show properties within the tabbed properties page when a
file is selected in the navigator.

Therefore I need a contribution id of the common navigator. If I would
subclass I could easily:

implements ITabbedPropertySheetPageContributor

and

public Object getAdapter(Class adapter) {
if (adapter == IPropertySheetPage.class)
return new TabbedPropertySheetPage(this);
return super.getAdapter(adapter);
}
public String getContributorId()
return "myId";
}

Should I override the class or is an id existing that can be used?

Thx
Joerg

Go ahead an override it. In 3.5 we allow the CommonNavigator to be
subclassed.
