Re: [e4-dev] e4 + splah handlers + app life cycle

[Glanzmann Christoph SBB CFF FFS <christoph.glanzmann@xxxxxx>]

Hello all,

Thanks for your helpful answers on my question and the LifecycleHandler examples. Marc Teufel also wrote today a blog entry [1] on this topic.

I have still an unresolved problem. In the StartupLifeCycleHandler i need access to the splash shell otherwise the dialog will disappear behind the splash image if i use the current/active shell.

Hi,

You can install a Lifecycle-Handler using the product extension points arguments. I've had written such a demo thing for Jax this week where I mainly presented
EMF-Databinding but the final result was an e4 application.

I didn't show a splash-screen but a file selection dialog but the idea should be the same. You can get access to the sources from by github repository [1,2].
