Properties View not showing my IPropertySource [message #452623]

Hello,
I've made a simple RCP application with two views : one contains a simple TreeViewer and the other is the standard PropertiesView.
The objets provided to the treeViewer all implement the IPropertySource interface.
I have registred my treeviewer as a selectionProvider and I verified (with a specific SelectionListener) that the selection event is well fired.

My problem is that the propertiesViewer doesn't show my properties. In fact the methods of my objects corresponding to the implementation of IPropertySource aren't event called.

Any idea ?

Thanks a lot.

I had similar problem of the property view showing up with nothing in it -
turns out I had not included the dependency on org.eclipse.ui.views in the
..product file and in the manifest.mf file. Did this, and suddenly the
property view started acting like magic. Good luck.

Thanks !

The missing dependency in the plugin was the problem.

Thanks again :)

Hi

I seem to have the above mentioned problem but I have already added
the dependency in my plugin.xml. Below is an outline of what I have
currently:

1. A treeviewer that is set to be a selection provider.
2. A treeObject(the selection) that implements IAdaptable and returns an
IPropertySource to the calling class.
3. A properties view that is included in the perspective class as a
separate folder using
IFolderLayout folder1 = layout.createFolder("folder1", (int)
IPageLayout.RATIO_MIN, 0.10f, editorArea);
folder1.addView("org.eclipse.ui.views.PropertySheet");

this view(oro.eclipse.ui.views) has also been included on the dependency
list for this plugin.

What I can see now :

1. All the views are displayed - the tree viewer as well as the property
sheet.
2. The property sheet seems to partially respond to the selection events
and by that I mean on a selection it getsPropertyDescriptors from the
IPropertySource implementation and also calls getPropertyValue() on each
of the descriptors(which in this case are Text descriptors).

My problem is that although they seem to return from this I still cannot
see the information on the Properties View.

The system seems to throw some error though and points to the error log
which doesnt contain any relevant errors. Any help on this will be much
appreciated ...

Thanks,
dkodeboy
