Re: [iam-dev] EMF Binding for Profile objects for the POM Editor

["Abel Muiño" <amuino@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm not a EMF Binding expert at all, but it seems like you should listen for selection changes on the table and then bind the model to the text fields (since they are used for editing several entities, I guess that the binding can not be statically defined).

This said... profiles are complex objects. I'm not sure if simple text fields will be enough for editing them.

For instance, you can configure plug-ins in a profile, so the whole plug-in editing UI already used on another page should be availlable?

Maybe we need a more dinamic UI? Using a tree (or tree-table) for showing the nested structure, vary much like the PDE editor for extension points? Maybe pop-up windows for reusing components?

Just my 2cents.

Hi,

I've been trying to get EMF Binding to work on the Profiles.  What I thought of was having the list of Profile IDs, in a table, in one component and the user would select one Profile ID and then the text fields and the other tabs would then load the data related to that selected profile ID.

Any suggestions on how to do the binding?  I've been trying out things lately and I'm not having much success.

If there are better suggestions on how to display the Profiles data in the POM Editor than what I have outlined above, I'd also welcome it.

thanks,
Korina
