Hi there,
I am trying to learn databinding and I have run into following problem:
I have a tree displayed in a TreeViewer (with databinding):
Account
+- Folder
Now, Folder has messages, and I would like to show only the number of
messages in the Folder:
Account
+- Folder (4)
Then I populate messages in the background job and the Folder label is
*not* updated.
I use the code found somewhere in examples
(TreeStructureAdvisor/IObservableFactory).
How can I update the label of Folder when its observered message list
changes?
TIA
Chris

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I was able to achieve the goal but I had to modify slightly your code,
basically because I had to support different objects (attached below).
The only sad thing is that you have access only to ViewerLabel and you
cannot use styled labels... any idea? should I open RFE?
Regards,
Chris
public class ServersLabelProvider extends ListeningLabelProvider {
public ServersLabelProvider(IObservableSet itemsThatNeedLabels) {
super(itemsThatNeedLabels);
}
public String prepareText(Object element) {
if (element instanceof ServerManager) {
return "Mail accounts";
}
if (element instanceof Server) {
return ((Server) element).getName();
}
if (element instanceof Folder) {
return ((Folder) element).getName() + " "
+ ((Folder) element).getMessages().size();
}
return null;
}
Adapter adapter;
@Override
protected void addListenerTo(Object next) {
if (adapter == null) {
if (next instanceof Folder) {
adapter = new Adapter() {
@Override
public Notifier getTarget() {
return null;
}
@Override
public boolean isAdapterForType(Object type) {
return true;
}
@Override
public void notifyChanged(final Notification notification) {
Display.getDefault().syncExec(new Runnable(){
@Override
public void run() {
fireChangeEvent(Collections.singleton(notification
.getNotifier()));
}
});
}
@Override
public void setTarget(Notifier newTarget) {
}
};
((Folder) next).eAdapters().add(adapter);
}
}
}
@Override
protected void removeListenerFrom(Object next) {
if (adapter != null && next instanceof Folder) {
((Folder) next).eAdapters().remove(adapter);
}
}
public void updateLabel(ViewerLabel label, Object element) {
label.setText(prepareText(element));
}
}
