I am interested in using Properties in my CodenameOne project, namely because properties can be observed. I searched and found this blog post which starts by announcing
We [Codename One committers] committed properties as a deprecated API
but then the blog post seems to tell it still could be in active development see
The code below is preliminary and the syntax/classes might change without warning
The code presented in the blog post is not testable on my project. Indeed the following code does not work :
public class User implements PropertyBusinessObject {
// Do stuff
}
because the PropertyBusinessObject interface does not exist in my project. How could the PropertyBusinessObject interface be defined, what should it extend ? And by the way are Properties already available ?
Thank you very much for helping me sorting this out in my mind!
Sure they've been available for a while. Just use Update Client Libs in the Codename One settings under the basics section. Once you do that you will have the latest libraries.
When you create a new project in the IDE it uses the libraries it has locally not necessarily the latest.

I have extended a class by one method, using the Enhancement Framework.
Now, my problem is that I want to add ABAPDoc to it but cannot find any way to do it!
The code in the Enhancement Include section seems to be editable in no way.
Is there any way to do it at all? I tried also from ADT in Eclipse but this calls the SAP GUI anyway.
What are you trying to do is indeed impossible.
The enhancement include is a technical object and it cannot be edited from the tab you highlighted, it is auto-generated as you changing pre- and post-methods.
What this tab shows is not an include itself, but the placement of the enh. include within the parent object
If you want to change the method comment from enhancement, you should go to Technical details tab and click on changed object, or just go to the class in SE24 and press to pre/post exit button, and you will end up in the same include:
You can write the ABAPDoc-syntaxed comment, but for me it didn't work, and Eclipse didn't recognized my comment written in SAPGui, maybe you will be luckier.
ABAPDoc team describes this piece in a fuzzy manner, it may be an expected behavior:
This ABAPDoc is only available to ADT and not SE80? I can not use it in SAP GUI development?
You can also write it in the source code and you will get also warnings when you execute a check, but there is no dedicated tools support like source code element information or quick assist (Ctrl+1)
To your principal question, ABAPDoc is a two-way road when viewing: the ABAPDocs can be viewed both from the Eclipse and SE80, and they are automatically showed in SE80 description fields (but only if they are declared synchronized).
But it seems to be a one-way road for edit: they can be created only in ADT Eclipse to be fully compatible. If the object cannot be opened in Eclipse natively like your enhancement you are out of the luck.
I put seems because I am not 100% sure. Maybe on later systems it was fixed, but on my 750 they are not recognized by Eclipse for enhanced methods.
The only reliable way of "editing" via SE80 is writing the comments to descriptions and then importing these SE80 descriptions into ABAPDoc in Eclipse
which is ridiculous in context of your question, so there is no way for you.
I have been searching the official docs and existing questions and could not find any information on this - in Elm, how it would be possible to see the members/methods/variables that belong to or are exposed by a package in Elm, (such as the dir method in python), without having to dive into the source code each time?
What I want to do is get a simple list of what methods are exposed by an imported package. (So for a package like List, it should output reverse , all, any, map, etc.) I have attempted tab completion in elm repl and the elm extension available in VS code editor, and elm repl does not offer any methods such as help, doc, ?, dir, man, etc., so I have no idea where to even start. I'm wondering how everyone else does this other than pulling up the source code for each and every package they use.
I apologize for the newbie question and if I misread or have been missing anything, but I couldn't even find anything in the https://elmprogramming.com tutorial. Thanks in advance.
Nothing like this exists in Elm to do reflection over modules, unfortunately (as of 0.19.1, at least).
However, if you aren't looking to actually do this kind of thing at runtime, but rather as a convenient way of finding out for development, the elm packaging system enforces the requirement that all public functions are documented, so if you visit the package page, every public function and type will be documented there (obviously it can't enforce the content of the documentation, but at the very least it will be listed).
We are migrating our application from Eclipse Indigo to Photon and I need help find a solution or alternate for a particular class which is present in Indigo but not in Photon.
The class we are trying to figure out is org.eclipse.ui.internal.navigator.AdaptabilityUtility.
Since it is an Internal class it is not available. But we had no luck finding an alternate.
Only one function of the class is used :
IAdaptable openable = (IAdaptable) AdaptabilityUtility.getAdapter(
selection.getFirstElement(), IResource.class);
If someone knows an alternative method which can be used here, it will be a great help.
Eclipse internals were completely rewritten for Eclipse 4 so in general there may not be exact alternatives for internal classes which were never part of the official API.
However for AdaptabilityUtility it looks like the current org.eclipse.core.runtime.Adapters class should work:
IResource resource = Adapters.adapt(selection.getFirstElement(), IResource.class);
Adapters.adapt uses generics so casts are not needed. Adapters is not internal so it is an official API.
Regarding to the solution described in this post, a third assembly is required to forward the type resolution to the correct assembly.
When adding this reference to the Android class library project using the type, the forwarding seems to not be done. The reference needs to be added in the Android application project which is the end point of the build process.
Does any solution exist to add the reference embedding the forwarding in the project requiring it ?
I mean, if in my solution architecture I use :
MyApp.Core - PCL
MyApp.Core.Droid - Android class library
MyApp.UI.Droid - Android Application
The usage of System.Net namespace (System.Net.Socket.AddressFamily for example) is done in my ViewModel, which is located in MyApp.Core.Droid (redirection of MyApp.Core with some plugins). In this case, it is more logical (and readable) to have the reference in the MyApp.Core.Droid. But in the fact, the assembly resolution is done (from what I understand) when packaging the application, so in MyApp.UI.Droid. So in this case, the reference needs to be added to MyApp.UI.Droid in order to be found (failed if added to MyApp.Core.Droid).
In this case the solution works, but its quite obvious to understand for a new programmer joining the team which, has not been facing the trouble and understands why this reference needs to be added to the UI project...
I'm not sure my thought is easy to understand by the way I introduce it. Let me know if you need more explanation.
Thanks,
Guillaume.
I'm not entirely sure why this 'fails if added to MyApp.Core.Droid' - it feels like this should be added. However, I know that Xamarin have tweaked and changed the dependency resolution scripts a few times.
With that said, I think the best answer to your question is 'don't worry about it too much' - this is only a small inconveneinve right now and it will be resolved by Xamarin's updates 'soon'.
The current PCL support is something that I and a number of others have worked on in order to make things work. This set of 'hacks' is a workaround for the lack of 'proper PCL' support - it simulates what the Microsoft PCL build platform does on WindowsPhone, WPF, etc, but it isn't a perfect implementation.
Xamarin have now committed to 'proper PCL' support. When that happens then these type-forwarding dependencies will automatically be added. The good news is that this support is perhaps now only days, weeks or at most months away.
I have a windows form application in which I'm attempting to utilize a plugin (class library). In the code I have it load the assembly from a dll file, which means I have not been able to debug. Furthermore I have not found out how to compile the library so I've had to use the debuged dll version for testing. I've run into a bug in which I create a new object and send that data through an interface to the plugin in an attempt to retrieve a blank slate group box from the plugin. However instead of reading the parameter as a new object i managed to step through the code once (don't ask me how, I don't know and I haven't been able to repeat it) and it appeared that the code was registering the parameter as "nothing" thus why I received a null reference error in the main program.
Is there a better way to debug this mechanism and find out where the problem is? Any ideas on what the problem could be. As I read over this is seems somewhat vague and I'm not sure how to describe it, but I'm willing to host a connect now meeting if anyone is willing to look at what is going on and I'm not making myself understood very well.
I'm not sure if I follow exactly what you're doing but I usually find that the best way to debug a class library is by in the solution for the class library I add a new project, either a WinForms one or a Console one, I then set this new project as the start up project and add a reference to the Class Library project (via the Project tab in the Add Reference dialog).
You'll then be able to call the methods in the class library from the other project and you can put breakpoints anywhere to see what's really going on easily.
Ok, so the problem was that any time you edit the class library you have to compile (and the only way I know how is debugging, I can't find a compile button and the publish button doesn't work and building doesn't appear to make a dll). But anyways you have to compile, transfer the file so you are reading the most recent one. If you edit the code during runtime it does NOT update the dll in use...which was my problem.
