Re: [platform-swt-dev] how to get all the text components in a subclass

[Carolyn MacLeod <Carolyn_MacLeod@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, Dov.

Get the shell using getShell() and then
ask it for its children using getChildren();
You will have to test each child to
see if it is an instanceof Text. (I assume you meant Text and not TextField).
If it is, cast it to Text, and send
getText();

In future, please ask user questions
on the swt newsgroup: news://news.eclipse.org/eclipse.platform.swt

Have fun,
Carolyn

Subject	[platform-swt-dev] how to get all the text components in a subclass        of TitleAreaDialog ?

Hi to all,

First excuse my bad English ;-)

I'm developing a JFace/SWT application which consists on a main Frame with
menu and dialogs.

This application contains a general MyDialog class which extends 
TitleAreaDialog class and all the dialogs herit of MyDialog class. Each
dialogs contains TextFields on which I would like to check, when user clicks
OK,  a specific control. Instead of checking this control in every
dialog 
classes, I would like to check it only once in okPressed() method of 
MyDialog class.

So, I would like to get in MyDialog class all of the TextFields (with text
values) components of the dialog.

Is there a way for doing that ?

Thanks a lot for your answers.

Dov
