Re: [sapphire-dev] java type action customizations

The applicability conditions associated with action handlers is only checked when the part is initialized, but applicability condition isn’t enablement. To change enablement of your action handler, you can call setEnabled() method. See ShowContactDetailsActionHandler in samples.

Hey Konstantin,

 

For Browse, 

 

I got the filter hooked up, no problem and am now contributing my own browse actions instead.  However, one thing I haven't figured out is how to disable one of my "browse" action on a particular property based on the state of the model, i.e. if another property has a value or not.  Can you do this with a Condition class?  I tried at first but I don't see the condition class get recalcuated based on a change in the model.  I am also using the @DependsOn annotation at the model level if that makes a difference.

[kosta] There isn’t a built-in system to do what you are after, but you can use a filter to remove the system-provided action handler and attach your own implementation.

 

For Create,

 

I was wondering if there is a way to modify the "create" action to dynamically provide the value of the superclass to use for the new java type?   

 

I know that I add my own custom actions for "browse" and "create" but I wanted to see if we should add this type of capabilities to the framework instead before I wrote my own.  Thanks so much!

 

[kosta] Currently, @JavaTypeConstraint is read directly, so there isn’t a way to substitute dynamic behavior. I can see adding JavaTypeConstraintService like we’ve done in other similar situations. Please open an enhancement request.

Hello again,

 

In case you haven't figured this out from all of my recent questions, I am in the process of migrating one of our big wizards that has lots of custom dialogs that needs enhancements and instead of fixing my current stuff, I want to move it all to a new sapphire based editor instead.  :)  I already asked one question about being able to toggle the enablement or disablement of java type actions in another post, so I wont add that in here.

 

This latest question has to do with customizing the default java type browse/create actions. Here is what I would like to do:
