how can i change binding properties without using initData?

[emaayan]

hi..
i'm trying to bind a combo to a grid, and it works, but i need to add aditional properties :
final CellEditor cellEditor_1 = new ComboBoxCellEditor(tvProperties.getTable(), new String[0]);
final IValueProperty cellEditorProperty_1 = CellEditorProperties.control().value(WidgetProperties.selection());
final IBeanValueProperty valueProperty_1 = BeanProperties.value("value");
tvcMylynFields.setEditingSupport(ObservableValueEditingSupport.create(tvProperties, bindingContext, cellEditor_1, cellEditorProperty_1, valueProperty_1));

for example, i need to have the combo not allow editing inside it, or accept a list of predefined properties
i was told not to change the method as it always re-generated

Currently, WB does not offer any way to manipulate the properties of CellEditors created in initDataBindings().

The only way around this at the moment, would be to add your own method (e.g., postInitBindings()) and call it after initDataBindings(). You could reference the BindingContext and do anything you wanted at that point.

If all you want to do is make the CellEditor read-only, you can make that change directly in initDataBindings(), and it will be preserved the next time that method is written.

Code: Select all

final CellEditor cellEditor_1 = new ComboBoxCellEditor(tvProperties.getTable(), new String[0], SWT.READ_ONLY);
