| Re: [cdt-dev] MBS wizard page can't get project template type in time to show a different wizard page content |
Hi Andrew, I tried the patch, applying everything for the wizards plugin (some preference information in other plugins I don't think were necessary, were they?) But I don't see any wizard pages at all show up after the CDT pages. It looks like you put the wizard pages as template pages instead of MBS pages, right? Then the processing would do the project properties changes I'd assume??) I'm looking more but wanted to get this note off to you first. ...Beth Beth Tibbitts (859) 243-4981 (TL 545-4981) High Productivity Tools / Parallel Tools http://eclipse.org/ptp IBM T.J.Watson Research Center Mailing Address: IBM Corp., 455 Park Place, Lexington, KY 40511 Andrew.Ferguson@s ymbian.com Sent by: To cdt-dev-bounces@e "CDT General developers list." clipse.org <cdt-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx> cc 11/08/2007 07:17 Subject AM Re: [cdt-dev] MBS wizard page can't get project template type in time to show a different wizard page Please respond to content "CDT General developers list." <cdt-dev@eclipse. org> hi Beth, I'm not sure this is a good way to be going about this as the template engine is invoked upon wizard finish - i.e. after the custom MPI page is displayed. That means any actions taken in the processes will need be picked up by any custom pages. Having taken a look at the current implementation in CVS, I think we can get what you want to happen via the existing template pages extension mechanism, which means we don't hit the data-flow problem from above. The attached patch shows how this could work - I've verified that the data is being. passed around as expected: I hit a bug in the template engine during this, but have updated cdt_4_0 and HEAD now so you might need to sync to the latest sources. thanks, Andrew, > I am using project templates to nicely allow several types of C projects > with different sample content, ideal for a tutorial so the students have > easily-created C projects. > > I am using MBSCustomPage to add a wizard page that calculates how to add > the include paths, and other calculated entities. > (Can't use the static information that a template wizard page could do.) > > I want to use a different wizard page depending on the type of project the > user selected from the templates, but I can't seem to get that information > in time to > affect which wizard page I show. > In order to get the project type, I added a process type that just > remembers the project type: > <extension point="org.eclipse.cdt.core.templateProcessTypes"> > <processType name="storeInfo" > processRunner= > "org.eclipse.ptp.pldt.wizards.wizardPages.StoreInfoProcessRunner"> > <simple name=."projectName"> </simple> > <simple name=."projectType"> </simple> > </processType>. > </extension> > > So then in the template.xml I put: > <process type="org.eclipse.ptp.pldt.wizards.storeInfo"> > <simple name="projectName" value="$(projectName)"/> > <simple name="projectType" value="mpi_project"/> > </process> > This way I should be able to determine that the user chose an "mpi_project" > > However, I don't get this information in time. > Here's the order that things happen (MPIProjectWizardPage is an > MBSCustomPage). > > StoreInfoProcessRunner.ctor() > MPIProjectWizardPage().ctor... > projectType=null --- don't know it yet > MPIProjectWizardPage.createUserEntryArea() > projectType=null --- don't know it yet (need it at this point to > determine what wizard page to show, but earlier would be better) > StoreInfoProcessRunner.process()... > projectName=mpihello2 ---> now I have it, but it's too late. > > Is there any way to get some information about which template is running, > before the MBS wizard page displays? > > ...Beth > > Beth Tibbitts (859) 243-4981 (TL 545-4981) > High Productivity Tools / Parallel Tools http://eclipse.org/ptp > IBM T.J.Watson Research Center > Mailing Address: IBM Corp., 455 Park Place, Lexington, KY 40511 > > _______________________________________________ > cdt-dev mailing list > cdt-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx > https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/cdt-dev ********************************************************************** Symbian Software Ltd is a company registered in England and Wales with registered number 4190020 and registered office at 2-6 Boundary Row, Southwark, London, SE1 8HP, UK.
