| <h1>Migrating from the ResourceNavigator</h1> |
| |
| <p> |
| First follow the steps to <a href="cnf_steps_general.htm">add the Common Navigator</a> and check that the |
| steps required for usage of <a href="cnf_steps_content.htm">resource content</a> are applied. |
| </p> |
| |
| <p>The following steps discuss the migration component for each part of the ResourceNavigator</p> |
| |
| <ol> |
| <li> |
| <code>org.eclipse.ui.ide.resourceFilters</code> |
| <p> |
| Add the corresponding |
| <b><a href="../reference/extension-points/org_eclipse_ui_navigator_navigatorContent.html">org.eclipse.ui.navigator.navigatorContent/commonFilter</a></b> |
| extensions. |
| </p> |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| <code>FrameList</code> support <code>get/setFrameList()</code> |
| <p> |
| The FrameList support is used for the Go Into functionality. Support for this |
| is included in the ProjectExplorer subclass of CommonNavigator. You should subclass ProjectExplorer |
| instead of CommonNavigator. |
| </p> |
| </li> |
| |
| |
| <li> |
| |
| <code>ResourcePatternFilter</code> support <code>get/setPatternFilter()</code> |
| <p> |
| Configure the ResourcePatternFilter using the |
| <b><a href="../reference/extension-points/org_eclipse_ui_navigator_navigatorContent.html">org.eclipse.ui.navigator.navigatorContent/commonFilter</a></b> |
| extension. Then you can access the instance of the filter using the following code (where <code>yourViewer</code> is the instance |
| of the CommonViewer and <code>yourFilterId</code> is the string of the Id of your common filter configured above):</p> |
| <pre> |
| INavigatorContentService contentService = yourViewer.getNavigatorContentService(); |
| INavigatorFilterService filterService = contentService.getFilterService(); |
| ICommonFilterDescriptor[] fds = filterService.getVisibleFilterDescriptors(); |
| for (int i = i; i < fds.length; i++) { |
| if (fds[i].getId().equals(yourFilterId)) |
| return filterService.getViewerFilter(filterDescriptor); |
| } |
| </pre> |
| |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| <code>IWorkingSet</code> support <code>get/setWorkingSet()</code> |
| <p> |
| Working sets are not directly supported by the Common Navigator. The Project Explorer however does support |
| working sets. There is however no current API in the Project Explorer to manipulate working sets. The |
| Project Explorer provides a UI to work with working sets. If this sort of API is required, please file |
| an enhancement request explaining the requirement. |
| </p> |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| <code>ResourceSorter</code> support <code>get/setResourceSorter()</code> |
| <p> |
| Use the sorting facility in the Common Navigator. |
| </p> |
| </li> |
| |
| <li> |
| <code>ResourceComparator</code> support <code>get/setResourceComparator()</code> |
| <p> |
| Use ResourceSorter instead for now as the Common Navigator does not directly support |
| ResourceComparators. |
| </p> |
| </li> |
| |
| </ol> |
