Description Markus Keller CLA 2004-08-26 04:44:46 EDT
Implementors of AbstractTextSearchResult have to implement
elementsChanged(Object[] objects). The element changes must be reflected in the
search result viewer. This functionality is currently internal, but should be
abstracted into API classes to avoid code duplication.

The API classes should provide the necessary implementation for displaying
AbstractTextSearchResults (leaving domain specific methods abstract).

TextSearchTableContentProvider, JavaSearchContentProvider, FileContentProvider,
and their subclasses should be structured like this:

TextSearchContentProvider
    (new; out of JavaSearchContentProvider, FileContentProvider)
+ TextSearchTableContentProvider
      (new; out of existing TextSearchTableCP, JavaSearchTableCP, FileTableCP)
+ TextSearchTreeContentProvider
      (new; out of FileTreeContentProvider, LevelTreeContentProvider)

Oops, I meant:
"Implementors of *AbstractTextSearchViewPage* ..."

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.
