Re: [ve-dev] GetterStyle /Template for BeanName/

In your example, the new JLable() is
not fully qualified.  Is this a requirement too?

In the future you should post these
kind of question on the news group...  

In any case, you do not change the codegen
template to achieve the name property settings, but rather, you want to
set this property on a drop.  This will require you to:
        1.
know what to name your component in advance
        2.
set the name property on the drop.

A simple way to achive this is to introduce
a new "My Label" entry on the palette that will automatically
set the name property.

For 1.  you can either maintain
the naming yourself, or use the default naming.
For 2. see the manner that we drop a
JTable on a Scroll pane from the palette....   org.eclipse.ve.jfc\palette\JTableWithScrollPane.xmi
        This
is where a JTableWithScrollPane is defined to be a JScrollPane
with the viewportView
property set to a JTable.  The annotation reflects the default naming
for each.
        Look
also on the jfc plugin palette contribution org.eclipse.ve.jfc\palette\javavisualbeanscats.xmi


      <cmpEntries
xsi:type="palette:EMFPrototypeToolEntry"   
         
            icon16Name="platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.ve.jfc/icons/full/clcl16/tableonscrollpane_obj.gif"
         
prototypeURI="platform:/plugin/org.eclipse.ve.jfc/palette/JTableWithScrollPane.xmi#JScrollPane_1">
        <entryLabel
xsi:type="utility:TranslatableString" key="Palette.Entry.JTableOnJScrollPane"
bundle="bundle"/>
      </cmpEntries>

Subject	[ve-dev] GetterStyle /Template for BeanName/

Hi,

I have a small problem with the Eclipse visual editor:
The name property of the beans is necessary for our applications. It will
be
used as a translation key.
We need the following style:

                
private JLabel jLabelFirstName = null;

                
private JLabel getJLabelFirstName() {
                
                 if(jLabelFirstName
== null) {
                
                 
               
jLabelFirstName = new JLabel();
                
                 
               
jLabelFirstName.setName("FirstName");
                
                 
               
...
                
                 }
                
                 return
jLabelFirstName;
                
}
}
Is it possible to set this template?
Thanks!
Best regards, 

Balázs Endrédi
