Hi

I've already posted this article in the group eclipse.tools.
They gave me the hint to post hear. ;-)
Ok, here is my short question:

I've installed the new release F1 with GTK and the GEF on my linux system.
For learning I tested the logic-example.
But I must discover it does not work everything.
(I' ve seen it on a windows nt system.)
If I want to connect two items nothing happens, no line nothing.
If I choose a full or half adder there are the connectors.

Any hints.

With best regards

Marcel Odendahl.

If you turn on the GEF Debug console, and check the "Tools" toolbar button,
you might see what happens. If a connection doesn't get created, the
CreationTool probably was not over a Target node when the mouse button was
released. You will see target information in the GEF Debug console.

yes, the problem I described is a F1/GTK problem.

Sorry, but I don't know what you mean.
What is the GEF Debug console?
I'm pretty new to eclipse and GEF.
Please explain me your hint more concretely

Thanks for your efforts.

With best regards

Marcel.

You must have all 5 plugins installed, then click on Window->Show View-> GEF
Debug

ok, perhaps im blind but there is no item GEF Debug. Sorry.
I can't find GEF Debug under Window-Show View or Window->Show View->Other.
Here is a list of my installed plugins in relation to GEF:
com.ibm.etools.draw2d
com.ibm.etools.draw2d.doc.isv
com.ibm.etools.gef
com.ibm.etools.gef.doc.isv
com.ibm.etools.gef.examples.logic

These are the 5 plugins you mentioned or did I make a mistake?

It seems your plugins arn't proper installed. If they are, you will find a
category called "GEF Developer" in Window->Show View->Other. Inside of this
category you can find "GEF Debug" and "Stack View".

how can I proper install GEF.
These are the steps I made:
1. I changed into the eclipse directory
2. I unziped the GEF archive
3. I started eclipse and a new project with the logic-sample

yesterday I downloaded the new GEF version from the eclipse site.
(gef_proposal.zip)
In this version the connectors work, too. So I think it was a bug
in the sample or in one of the GEF classes.

Thanks for your help.

But what about the GEF Debug. Please read the two other articles
in this thread.
I'm confused.

Thanks,

Marcel.

Workspace also. What a pain, right? Well, like I said, we don't want these
views to be available in the final product, so they *had* to be in an
external plugin. Eclipse does NOT support programmatically adding Views,
which is what we would like to do when we detect that the workbench was
launched in "development" mode.

I tried to install the plugins in the Runtime Workspace.
This is what I done.
First I created a new project for plugins.
Then I imported the external plugins. After importing the plugins
in the task list I see that there are some project missing which
a marked as required by the gef plugins.
I made some test with the Java Build Path but nothing works.
Unfortunately I do not find a hint in the docs.

What's going wrong?

Cu

Marcel.

Ok, I did this. Now there are various plugins. In my task list there
are 182 messages. These messages shows that there many methods, etc
are deprecated.
At the tree entry "com.ibm.etools.gef" there is a red circle with a white
cross inside. I think here went something wrong.
Now I restarted eclipse in order to test the GEF-Debug console but
there is still no debug console.
This maddens me slowly. ;-)

Am I to stupid or what?
Is there more docs somewhere outside?

A lot of thanks for your efforts.

Cu

Marcel.

In class AbstractTreeContainerPolicy there a the
methods eraseAddFeedback, insertMarkAfterLastChild,
showAddFeedback and showCreateFeeback.
In these methods there are invokations of a method
called setInsertMark. This method is undefined for
org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Tree.
