I know one can dynamically change the content of a Label by using an Event Handler, and overriding for example the onRender method, for example:
#Override
public void onRender(ILabelInstance label, IReportContext reportContext)
throws ScriptException {
label.setText("My text!!");
}
But it doesn't seem to work if the label has its Localization TextKey set.
Does anyone already tried to implement it?
Ok ... found a workaround, just remove the Text Key before setting your own text:
#Override
public void onRender(ILabelInstance label, IReportContext reportContext)
throws ScriptException {
label.setTextKey("");
label.setText("My text!!");
}

I'm making a basic IntelliJ plugin that lets a user define Run Configuration (following the tutorial at [1]), and use said Run Configurations to execute the file open in the editor on a remote server.
My Run Configuration is simple (3 text fields), and I have it all working, however, after editing the Run Configuration, and click "Apply" or "OK" after changing values, the entered values are lost.
What is the correct way to persist and read-back values (both when the Run Configuration is re-opened as well as when the Run Configuration's Runner invoked)? It looks like I could try to create a custom persistence using [2], however, it seems like the Plugin framework should have a way to handle this already or at least hooks for when Apply/OK is pressed.
[1] https://www.jetbrains.org/intellij/sdk/docs/tutorials/run_configurations.html
[2] https://www.jetbrains.org/intellij/sdk/docs/basics/persisting_state_of_components.html
Hopefully, this post is a bit more clear to those new to IntelliJ plugin development and illustrates how persisting/loading Run Configurations can be achieved. Please read through the code comments as this is where much of the explanation takes place.
Also now that SettingsEditorImpl is my custom implementation of the SettingsEditor abstract class, and likewise, RunConfigurationImpl is my custom implementation of the RunConfigiration abstract class.
The first thing to do is to expose the form fields via custom getters on your SettingsEditorImpl (ie. getHost())
public class SettingsEditorImpl extends SettingsEditor<RunConfigurationImpl> {
private JPanel configurationPanel; // This is the outer-most JPanel
private JTextField hostJTextField;
public SettingsEditorImpl() {
super();
}
#NotNull
#Override
protected JComponent createEditor() {
return configurationPanel;
}
/* Gets the Form fields value */
private String getHost() {
return hostJTextField.getText();
}
/* Copy value FROM your custom runConfiguration back INTO the Form UI; This is to load previously saved values into the Form when it's opened. */
#Override
protected void resetEditorFrom(RunConfigurationImpl runConfiguration) {
hostJTextField.setText(StringUtils.defaultIfBlank(runConfiguration.getHost(), RUN_CONFIGURATION_HOST_DEFAULT));
}
/* Sync the value from the Form UI INTO the RunConfiguration which is what the rest of your code will interact with. This requires a way to set this value on your custom RunConfiguration, ie. RunConfigurationImpl##setHost(host) */
#Override
protected void applyEditorTo(RunConfigurationImpl runConfiguration) throws ConfigurationException {
runConfiguration.setHost(getHost());
}
}
So now, the custom SettingsEditor, which backs the Form UI, is set up to Sync field values In and Out of itself. Remember, the custom RunConfiguration is what is going to actually represent this configuration; the SettingsEditor implementation just represents the FORM (a subtle difference, but important).
Now we need a custom RunConfiguration ...
/* Annotate the class with #State and #Storage, which is used to define how this RunConfiguration's data will be persisted/loaded. */
#State(
name = Constants.PLUGIN_NAME,
storages = {#Storage(Constants.PLUGIN_NAME + "__run-configuration.xml")}
)
public class RunConfigurationImpl extends RunConfigurationBase {
// Its good to 'namespace' keys to your component;
public static final String KEY_HOST = Constants.PLUGIN_NAME + ".host";
private String host;
public RunConfigurationImpl(Project project, ConfigurationFactory factory, String name) {
super(project, factory, name);
}
/* Return an instances of the custom SettingsEditor ... see class defined above */
#NotNull
#Override
public SettingsEditor<? extends RunConfiguration> getConfigurationEditor() {
return new SettingsEditorImpl();
}
/* Return null, else we'll get a Startup/Connection tab in our Run Configuration UI in IntelliJ */
#Nullable
#Override
public SettingsEditor<ConfigurationPerRunnerSettings> getRunnerSettingsEditor(ProgramRunner runner) {
return null;
}
/* This is a pretty cool method. Every time SettingsEditor#applyEditorTo() is changed the values in this class, this method is run and can check/validate any fields! If RuntimeConfigurationException is thrown, the exceptions message is shown at the bottom of the Run Configuration UI in IntelliJ! */
#Override
public void checkConfiguration() throws RuntimeConfigurationException {
if (!StringUtils.startsWithAny(getHost(), "http://", "https://")) {
throw new RuntimeConfigurationException("Invalid host");
}
}
#Nullable
#Override
public RunProfileState getState(#NotNull Executor executor, #NotNull ExecutionEnvironment executionEnvironment) throws ExecutionException {
return null;
}
/* This READS any prior persisted configuration from the State/Storage defined by this classes annotations ... see above.
You must manually read and populate the fields using JDOMExternalizerUtil.readField(..).
This method is invoked at the "right time" by the plugin framework. You dont need to call this.
*/
#Override
public void readExternal(Element element) throws InvalidDataException {
super.readExternal(element);
host = JDOMExternalizerUtil.readField(element, KEY_HOST);
}
/* This WRITES/persists configurations TO the State/Storage defined by this classes annotations ... see above.
You must manually read and populate the fields using JDOMExternalizerUtil.writeField(..).
This method is invoked at the "right time" by the plugin framework. You dont need to call this.
*/
#Override
public void writeExternal(Element element) throws WriteExternalException {
super.writeExternal(element);
JDOMExternalizerUtil.writeField(element, KEY_HOST, host);
}
/* This method is what's used by the rest of the plugin code to access the configured 'host' value. The host field (variable) is written by
1. when writeExternal(..) loads a value from a persisted config.
2. when SettingsEditor#applyEditorTo(..) is called when the Form itself changes.
*/
public String getHost() {
return host;
}
/* This method sets the value, and is primarily used by the custom SettingEditor's SettingsEditor#applyEditorTo(..) method call */
public void setHost(String host) {
this.host = host;
}
}
To read these configuration values elsewhere, say for example a custom ProgramRunner, you would do something like:
final RunConfigurationImpl runConfiguration = (RunConfigurationImpl) executionEnvironment.getRunnerAndConfigurationSettings().getConfiguration();
runConfiguration.getHost(); // Returns the configured host value
See com.intellij.execution.configurations.RunConfigurationBase#readExternal as well as com.intellij.execution.configurations.RunConfigurationBase#loadState and com.intellij.execution.configurations.RunConfigurationBase#writeExternal
I am trying to get a label widget to update when a key is pressed. For some reason cannot get the label text to update, even though the Gtk thread correctly registers the key press (eg, writes the key to console). This is mono 4.4.0 and gtk-sharp 2.12 on macos.
public MainWindow() : base(Gtk.WindowType.Toplevel)
{
Build();
this.KeyPressEvent += ToddlerKeyPressEventHandler;
}
public void ToddlerKeyPressEventHandler (object o, Gtk.KeyPressEventArgs args) {
Gtk.Application.Invoke(delegate {
string letter = args.Event.Key.ToString();
this.letterLabel.Text = letter;
Console.WriteLine(letter);
this.letterLabel.QueueDraw();
});
}
I think you're missing an attribute. Try this:
[GLib.ConnectBeforeAttribute]
public void ToddlerKeyPressEventHandler (object o, Gtk.KeyPressEventArgs args)
{
letterLabel.Text = args.Event.Key.ToString ();
}
Bear in mind that if the event handler is hooked up to the label widget this won't work unless you also ensure that the "Selectable" property for that label widget is set to true (checked).
I am working on disabling copy/paste option menus on xamarin forms Entry, I am able to disable copy option using IsPassword=true attribute but this attribute also converts the normal input field to password field, which is not a requirement.
<Entry IsPassword="true" Placeholder="Password" TextColor="Green" BackgroundColor="#2c3e50" />
Thanks in advance.
This has to do with how Forms functions. Using iOS as the example here, the CanPerform override referred to in the other answer's Bugzilla issue is using the UIMenuController as the withSender and not the UITextField itself that might otherwise be expected. This is because the EntryRenderer class is a ViewRenderer<TView, TNativeView> type and subsequently is using whatever TNativeView (in this case, the UITextView) has in its CanPerform. Because nothing is going to be overridden by default, one still sees all of the cut/copy/paste options in the UIMenuController.
As a result, there would be a couple options. You could first make the modification where if you don't want copy/paste but are fine with getting rid of everything else, you can use UIMenuController.SharedMenuController.SetMenuVisible(false, false) in a custom renderer inheriting from EntryRenderer. If you look around on SO, there are similar questions where this is a possible route.
Alternatively, you can create a "true" custom renderer inheriting from ViewRenderer<TView, TNativeView> as ViewRenderer<Entry, YourNoCopyPasteUITextFieldClassName>. The class inheriting from UITextField can then override CanPerform as something like follows:
public override bool CanPerform(Selector action, NSObject withSender)
{
if(action.Name == "paste:" || action.Name == "copy:" || action.Name == "cut:")
return false;
return base.CanPerform(action, withSender);
}
This will require more effort because the custom renderer will not have the same behavior as the EntryRenderer, but as Xamarin.Forms is now open source, you could look to it for some ideas as to how the EntryRenderer functions normally. Something similar would likely have to be done for Android.
Edit: For Android, you can probably use this SO answer as a starting point: How to disable copy/paste from/to EditText
Another custom renderer, this time inheriting from ViewRenderer<Entry, EditText>, and create a class inside of it like this (in the most basic form):
class Callback : Java.Lang.Object, ActionMode.ICallback
{
public bool OnActionItemClicked(ActionMode mode, IMenuItem item)
{
return false;
}
public bool OnCreateActionMode(ActionMode mode, IMenu menu)
{
return false;
}
public void OnDestroyActionMode(ActionMode mode)
{
}
public bool OnPrepareActionMode(ActionMode mode, IMenu menu)
{
return false;
}
}
Then, in your OnElementChanged method, you can set the native control and the CustomSelectionActionModeCallback value:
protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<Entry> e)
{
base.OnElementChanged(e);
if (Control != null)
{
Control.CustomSelectionActionModeCallback = new Callback();
}
}
Doing something like the following appears to disable all of the copy/paste/cut functionality on the custom entry as far as the toolbar goes. However, you can still long click to show the paste button, to which I've poked around a bit hadn't found an answer yet beyond setting LongClickable to false. If I do find anything else in that regard, I'd make sure to update this.
I have a custom launch configuration. It currently has a JavaArgumentsTab() where I can enter things for VM arguments and Program arguments. But how do I actually get any values entered there?
Ideally I would get them inside my LaunchConfigurationDelegate's launch() method. I expected to find any text entered as arguments inside the LaunchConfiguration or other parameters to that method, and I'm sure this is a newbie question, but I really haven't found anything promising.
TabGroup:
public class LaunchConfigurationTabGroup extends AbstractLaunchConfigurationTabGroup {
#Override
public void createTabs(ILaunchConfigurationDialog dialog, String mode) {
ILaunchConfigurationTab[] tabs = new ILaunchConfigurationTab[] {
new JavaArgumentsTab(),
new CommonTab()
};
setTabs(tabs);
} }
LaunchConfigurationDelegate:
public class LaunchConfigurationDelegate implements ILaunchConfigurationDelegate {
#Override
public void launch(ILaunchConfiguration configuration, String mode,
ILaunch launch, IProgressMonitor monitor) throws CoreException {
// How to get anything entered on my Java tab here...?
} }
Everything from the tabs should already have been set as attribute values in the ILaunchConfiguration when launch is called.
The settings from JavaArgumentsTab are stored in the attributes using constants from IJavaLaunchConfigurationConstants.
I want to write the contents of a per occasion active TextBox back to the bound property of the ViewModel when the user presses the key combination for save (Ctrl-S).
My Problem with it is, that I'm not able to trigger the execution of the binding so that the bound Text-Property reflects the contents of the TextBox.
-There seems to be no GetBinding-method. Therefore I can not get the Binding and execute it manualy.
-There is no Validate-method such as in WinForms which executes the Binding
-Giving focus to another control from within KeyDown seems not to work, the binding does not execute
How can I achieve this?
Take a look at Aaron's discussion about this in his WiredPrarie blog post : http://www.wiredprairie.us/blog/index.php/archives/1701
I think I understand your question better now. One way around this would be to use a sub-classed textbox with a new property like this from here:
public class BindableTextBox : TextBox
{
public string BindableText
{
get { return (string)GetValue(BindableTextProperty); }
set { SetValue(BindableTextProperty, value); }
}
// Using a DependencyProperty as the backing store for BindableText. This enables animation, styling, binding, etc...
public static readonly DependencyProperty BindableTextProperty =
DependencyProperty.Register("BindableText", typeof(string), typeof(BindableTextBox), new PropertyMetadata("", OnBindableTextChanged));
private static void OnBindableTextChanged(DependencyObject sender, DependencyPropertyChangedEventArgs eventArgs)
{
((BindableTextBox)sender).OnBindableTextChanged((string)eventArgs.OldValue, (string)eventArgs.NewValue);
}
public BindableTextBox()
{
TextChanged += BindableTextBox_TextChanged;
}
private void OnBindableTextChanged(string oldValue, string newValue)
{
Text = newValue ? ? string.Empty; // null is not allowed as value!
}
private void BindableTextBox_TextChanged(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs e)
{
BindableText = Text;
}
}
Then bind to the BindableText property.
Solution for command-instances
Here a solution I have found which is relatively leightweight, but also a bit "hackish":
btn.Focus(Windows.UI.Xaml.FocusState.Programmatic);
Dispatcher.ProcessEvent(CoreProcessEventsOption.ProcessAllIfPresent);
btn.Command.Execute(null);
First I give the focus to another control (In my case the button which has the bound command). Then I give the system time to execute the bindings and in the end I raise the command which is bound to the button.
Solution without bound commands
Give the Focus to another control and call the Dispatcher.ProcessEvent(...).
anotherControl.Focus(Windows.UI.Xaml.FocusState.Programmatic);
Dispatcher.ProcessEvent(CoreProcessEventsOption.ProcessAllIfPresent);
// Do your action here, the bound Text-property (or every other bound property) is now ready, binding has been executed
Please see also the solution of BStateham.
It's another way to solve the problem
