Re: [mylyn-integrators] Context Bridge for resources in memory

It should be possible.  For example, Tasktop’s bridge for web content treats all the content as dynamic.  All you should need I a stable String-based handle to the content, and potentially some cached content.  In the case of the web resource bridge, the main things cached are the favicon for a page and its title.  That and the tree structure are the minimal set of information needed to display focused content in a view.

Subject: [mylyn-integrators] Context Bridge for resources in memory

 

Hello,

I have a question regarding the usage of the org.eclipse.mylyn.context.ui.bridges extension point.

I’m working on a context bridge for a custom view that extends org.eclipse.ui.part.ViewPart to represent a treeview of a database contents.  I’m not too sure how to go about implementing  the ui.bridge since I don’t have access to file resources (no contentType). I read the database contents on-demand and stored it in memory. Is it possible to take advantage of the Mylyn context ui for such a view.

I would appreciate if anyone could point me in the right direction or simply let me know if this is possible.

Thanks in advance for any pointers.

 

Eric
