How about a callback to the updater when a ControlDecoration is created for a particular observable? (In reply to comment #1) > How about a callback to the updater when a ControlDecoration is created for a > particular observable? That would work. Removed from 3.6. Owners can re-assess. PW This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant. |
Build ID: 3.5 Steps To Reproduce: When using ControlDecorationSupport, the ControlDecoration is created internally and not directly accessible. It is likely that a user will need to access the ControlDecoration. For example, I need to set the ControlDecoration as data on the Control (for testing purposes). Maybe an API such as: public ControlDecoration getDecorationFor(IObservable target); More information: The only place the ControlDecoration is accessible is via a custom ControlDecorationUpdater, but this workaround/hack is roundabout: protected void update(ControlDecoration decoration, IStatus status) { // do what you need with decoration... decoration.getControl().setData("CONTROL_DECORATION", decoration); super.update(decoration, status); }
