I have a pure e4 application I am trying to build. I am somewhat new to eclipse and e4 so not being able to find an answer with an internet search because I was not using the correct search term(s).
I have a command and handler defined in the e4xmi file. I have my POJO handler. I can inject the IServiceConstants.ACTIVE_PART into the @Execute method. Depending on what the "Active Part" is when the end user press my "Reset" button the execute(Mpart aPart) can have a object or be null.
My e4 application has many sections/windows many of which can have a MPart and there are a lot of subInterface of MPart like MApplicationElement, MBindings, MContext, MContribution, MDirtyable, MHandlerContainer, MLocalizable, MPartSashContainerElement, MStackElement, MUIElement, MUILabel and MWindowElement. So my command handler could get any random MPart when invoked. But I need to go into one specific MPart, a JavaFX ScrollPane, and change some data in the scene graph.
How do I get the MPart I need when any random MPart will come in through DI?
package software;
import org.eclipse.e4.core.di.annotations.Execute;
import org.eclipse.e4.ui.services.IServiceConstants;
import org.eclipse.e4.ui.model.application.ui.basic.MPart;
import javax.inject.Named;
public class Reset {
@Execute
public void execute(
@Named(IServiceConstants.ACTIVE_PART) MPart aPart
) {
System.out.println("aPart: " + aPart);
}
}

Let the system inject the MApplication instance and search for the
specific part.
class Handler {
@Execute
void zoom(MApplication app, EModelService s) {
s.findElement(MPart.class,....);
}
}
But IMHO this is not the way to go but you should better send an event
and in the handler and let your part subscribe to the event.
class Handler {
@Execute
void zoom(IEventBroker b) {
b.post("/my/application/zoom/increase", 1);
}
}
class MyPart {
@UIEventTopic("/my/application/zoom/increase")
void handleZoom(Integer value) {
// ...
}
}
