RE: [ve-dev] Unable to see images on Open

Hi Janak,

I'm lost. I no longer understand what's
going on. 

I can't even point to where to debug.

Can you please answer one question.
When you say pack(), do you mean ULCShell.pack() or do you mean JFrame.pack()?


You shouldn't have to call pack like
you are doing. The managerExtension like I showed you should handle the
pack and the images without anything else special.

Please implement my suggestion AND remove
the other pack()'s that you are doing. They are not necessary.

Subject	RE: [ve-dev] Unable to see images on Open

Hi Rich,
 
Appreciate your help. I will try
your suggestions.
 
However, a question:
 
Case 1: When I drop a ULCButton
it shows up fine.
 
Case 2: When I close the visual
class and open it, the button is not visible.
 
I checked in the debugger the
sequence of calls in both the cases.
 
In Case1:
 
CompositionProxyAdapter.notifyChanged
calls initSetting() which creates BeanProxies.
 
After the command is executed,
ModelChangeController.doModelChanges() and transactionEnded() are called.
Which in turn calls ComponentsGraphicalEditPart.queRefreshChildren()
which calls SubClassCompositionComponentsGEP.refreshChildren() which leads
to  addChild() which subsequently calls activate() on ULCComponentGraphicalEditPart.

 
The activate() method calls setImageNotifier
on the ImageFigureController. In this method refreshImage() is called on
the ProxyAdapter class which delegates to ComponentManager.
 
In Case 2:
 
JavaVisualEditorPart first builds
the model and then CopositionProxyAdapter is created and subsequently its
initSetting() method is called which creates BeanProxy.
 
Then JavaVisualEditorPart calls
initializeViewers() wherein setRootModel is called.This calls SubClassComponentGraphicalEditPart's
activate() which results in the call to ULCComponentGraphicalEditPart.activate().

 
The activate() method calls setImageNotifier
on the ImageFigureController. In this method refreshImage() is called on
the ProxyAdapter class which delegates to ComponentManager.
 
--------
 
As can be seen, in both the cases,
refreshImage() is called. Then why does the image not show up in Case 2?
 
Thanks and regards,
 
Janak
 
PS: 
To propagate the changes made
to the ULC widgets to its Swing counter part in the client, I always call
pack on the free form dialog after adding the widget to the free form dialog
after initing the proxy. pack() is also called in applySetting() after
applying the property._______________________________________________
