max value [message #466168]

Hi,

i use a table and i wanted to know, if a user drags the bar from the
vertical scrollbar to the maximum value.

The maximum value is never reached, so i can't do a check like

int scrollBarValue = scrollBar.getSelection();
int maxScrollBarValue = scrollBar.getMaximum();
if (scrollBarValue >= maxScrollBarValue) .... // fails anytime

I think that's the same in Swing and i hoped it doesn't exist in SWT.
Any idea how to solve this problem?
Thanks,

Ingo

Possible hack:

Point p = ...; // an arbitrary point just up from the bottom of the table
TableItem lastItem = ...; // the last item added to the table

if (table.getItem(p).equals(lastItem))
    System.out.println("Scrolled to the bottom of the table");

You would have to set up a daemon thread which then put a call in to Display#asyncExec(Runnable) every few seconds (depending on how precise you need your timing to be) and pass a Runnable object which could call similar code to the above.

As you can probably see, this hack isn't a terribly good idea, but I honestly don't know enough about scrolling to give you another alternative. Anyone else want to bail me out? :-)

Composite c = new Composite(shell, SWT.V_SCROLL | SWT.H_SCROLL);
final ScrollBar bar = c.getVerticalBar();
bar.addSelectionListener(new SelectionAdapter() {
public void widgetSelected(SelectionEvent e) {
int scrollBarValue = bar.getSelection();
int maxScrollBarValue = bar.getMaximum();
int thumb = bar.getThumb();
if (scrollBarValue + thumb == maxScrollBarValue) {
System.out.println("Max reached");
}
}
});
