Fw: [ptp-dev] Question about AbstractRemoteResourceManagerConfigurationW

[Dave Wootton <dwootton@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Greg
I'm looking at the wizard panels again, and it looks like it may not make 
sense to extend the AbstractRemoteManagerConfigurationWizardPage class 
since I think this means that we need to duplicate the GUI logic to manage 
all the widgets related to proxy setup and remote access in that class as 
well as adding our additional options for proxy invocation.

I'm thinking that we would just use that class directly, then implement a 
second proxy setup page, extending from RMConfigurationWizardPage where we 
would implement the logic to manage our proxy invocation options. This way 
we don't have problems staying in sync with 
AbstractRemoteManagerConfigurationWizardPage. It looks like the proxy 
configuration wizard is already set up to support this concept by the 
creation of an array with two elements, the 
AbstractRemoteManagerConfigurationWizardPage class followed by the new 
wizard page in PEResourceManagerConfigurationWizardPageFactory.getPages().

Does this make sense?

I guess the other alternative would be to create a pane in the 
createContents() method of AbstractRemoteManagerConfigurationWizardPage 
that we can access and create our additional widgets in that pane.

Rolf and I talked about this and think our extending this class to add the 
widgets for resource manager-unique options would be reasonable. I think 
this means defining some key we can use to store the options tring as well 
as a way to get/set it.

I was just going to change that to 'Launch server manually'. :-)

I didn't have any particular solution in mind. If you'd like to be 
able to override the default implementation to provide your own 
wizard page then that would probably be easiest for me. It could get 
a bit messy trying to provide enough flexibility on the current page 
for every implementation.
