Description Jeff Myers CLA 2004-07-28 15:45:04 EDT 
We need a common way of requesting from the remote vm side a refresh of the
image for a specified control.  Specifically we need this on SWT in order to
listen to the locationChanged event on a browser and refresh the image when the
page loading completes.

In VE 1.1 this is done by doing revalidate() on the BeanProxyAdapter.
Comment 2 Richard Kulp CLA 2005-07-28 10:15:43 EDT 
closing. However, we do not have code for listening on the browser. We would
need a defect for just that.
Comment 3 Jeff Myers CLA 2005-07-28 10:27:25 EDT 
I took a quick look at the BeanProxyAdapter, and it's in the VE Java Core jar.
This isn't available to the remote vm side, right?  This bug is about pushing
from the remote vm to tell the editor the image needs to be refreshed, not a
request from the editor to refresh the image.
Comment 4 Richard Kulp CLA 2005-07-28 10:57:10 EDT 
Ok, I see. Actually it can be done from the IDE side by adding a listener on the
remote vm side to signal back when the browser is done and then make a request
for an image.

But there should be an easier way from the remote vm side to do this. Most of
the code is there, just a few timing problems to think about.

Will leave this open.
