Context click on an editor's vertical ruler

[nortega]

Hi,

I need to use the context menu of and editor's vertical ruler. When I used the recorder to do it the canvas was used to locate the vertical ruler. I have set a name to that canvas to avoid ambiguity. However, when I use the context click API the click takes place at the middle of the control. Since the behavior of the context menu varies depending on where the ruler is clicked, is there a way I can specify the specific location I want to click on?

This is the API call I am using:

Code: Select all

ui.contextClick(new NamedWidgetLocator("editor.vertical_ruler_control"),  "Toggle Brea&kpoint");

There is currently not a good way to do this generally. But perhaps we could work up something for your specific case. Is the goal to set a breakpoint at a given line number? Maybe we could cook something up that talks directly to the action that triggers the toggling (e.g., org.eclipse.debug.ui.actions.ToggleBreakpointAction). Would an API that looks like this be headed in the right direction?:

void toggleBreakpointInActiveEditorAtLine(int lineNumber);

Do you need to be able to check if the breakpoint is already set?

I need to toggle a breakpoint at a particular line. I also need to verify that breakpoints can be toggled only in lines that support them (E.g. not in comment lines). This involves being able to check if a ruler menu option is enabled or disabled.

Starting with setting a breakpoint on a line, here's a top-down sketch of how we might proceed if we took the programmatic angle.

Code: Select all

import org.eclipse.debug.ui.actions.ToggleBreakpointAction;
import org.eclipse.jface.text.IDocument;
import org.eclipse.jface.text.source.IVerticalRulerInfo;
import org.eclipse.ui.IEditorPart;

import com.windowtester.runtime.swt.UITestCaseSWT;

public class BreakpointSpelunk extends UITestCaseSWT {

   public void testDrive() throws Exception {
      moveCursorToLine();
      toggleBreakpoint();
   }
   private void moveCursorToLine() {
      // TODO Auto-generated method stub
   }
   
   private void toggleBreakpoint() {
      IEditorPart editor = getEditorPart();
      IVerticalRulerInfo rulerInfo= (IVerticalRulerInfo) editor.getAdapter(IVerticalRulerInfo.class);
      IDocument document = getEditor(editor);
      new ToggleBreakpointAction(editor, document, rulerInfo).run();
   }

   private IDocument getEditor(IEditorPart editor) {
      // TODO Auto-generated method stub
      return null;
   }

   private IEditorPart getEditorPart() {
      // TODO Auto-generated method stub
      return null;
   }
   
   
}

There are certainly cleaner ways... but this is a start.
