R3.1.1
Classic situation:
a palette-like View, which causes changes to the data-model shown in the
Editor (e.g., through a popup-menu item in the View) => how to ensure
that the editor updates its display of the model?
Eclipse-PDE solution: resource-changes and a ResourceChangeListener;
works fine
Problem: in RCP, no such thing as Resources ... (also, my editor is not
a text-editor)
So: is there a preferred alternate in RCP to ResourceChangedListeners?
or do I just roll my own set of model-listeners, etc.? (I'm fine with
doing either, but I don't want to reinvent the wheel and find myself
fighting Eclipse; I'd rather work with it!)
thanks,
Paul
Note: these sources did not address the issue:
1) Help in the 3.1 Eclipse
(http://127.0.0.1:51279/help/topic/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/guide/rcp_actions.htm)
2) This newsgroup, although two threads were tantalizing: "Linking View
vs Editor(ISelectionProvider ISelectionListener)" (but my situation does
not involve selection), and "How does a view listen to a editor's
action" (which is the inverse of my problem, but the recommended
solution depends on making use of the OutlineView, which seems as far as
I can see to contain only SelectionChangedListener stuff)
