Using eclipse launch framework [message #329878]

I am using eclipse launch framework for my GUI.
I have followed all the steps given here:
http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-Launch-Framework/lau nch.html
I am able to see all my tabs and controls when i select my configuration
but I dont know how to configure Run button to execute my code.
Do we have any similar method like performApply()?

Also, i need to make Apply button ebabled on some event. How to make it
enabled in my selectionListner?

Also, need a help on how to retrieve all the configurations saved in
launch context programatically on any IAction.

Like hibernate has its own launch configuration, can we have our own
launch configuration and configurationType? if yes how?

Can anyone help?

Thanks
Trushna

Need a class that implements ILaunchConfigurationDelegate. In the overridden
"launch" method write your code

Use the setDirty(boolean) and updateLaunchConfigurationDialog methods

What do you intend to do here exactly? In case you want this information
available to your Delegate class for the LaunchConfiguration, then it gets a
working copy of the LaunchConfiguration object with the values saved from
the Tab. You can use this object.

Have you created a launch configuration shortcut as described on that page?

Hi,

I am able to customise Run button by overriding launch method in
LaunchConfigurationDelegate.

Aply button also worked calling updateLaunchConfigurationDialog() on
listner.

I could retrieve all the configurations which i created through my launch
dialog using :

ILaunchConfigurationType type =
DebugPlugin.getDefault().getLaunchManager().getLaunchConfigu rationType( "id
of my config type");

ILaunchConfiguration[] configs =
DebugPlugin.getDefault().getLaunchManager().getLaunchConfigu rations(type);

Also i was able to get fully customised launch dialog by adding
'org.eclipse.debug.ui.launchGroups' and other needed extensions. and
specifying customised 'category' i.e. other that run or debug for
'org.eclipse.debug.core.launchConfigurationTypes' and
'org.eclipse.debug.ui.launchGroups' extensions.

Thanks a lot for the reply.

Great! :)

I didn't know of
DebugPlugin.getDefault().getLaunchManager().getLaunchConfigu rations(type);

So something I got to know as well!

Did you guys understand what the difference is between a
LaunchConfigurationType and a LaunchConfigurationGroup?

At one time I had my launch config type showing up in Run and Debug
configuration UIs. But now they don't show. Any hints on how to debug this?

LaunchConfigurationType is the description of how to launch a
program/application; while these configuration types sit under a
LaunchConfigurationGroup. The group is basically the placeholder for these
types in the Run/Debug menu (I think).

What was/is the problem you were encountering exactly?

So then what is a "category" on the LaunchConfigurationType? I thought
that the category was the thing the types would sit under...

I had put my LaunchConfigurationType under a non-existent category. Once
I removed the category, the type appeared, yay!

Rahul: Hmm... I am also pretty unsure of this now :( You could try posting
this as a new topic?
