I am trying to create a tabbed property view as per given article : The Eclipse Tabbed Properties View
As per article, org.eclipse.ui.views.properties.tabbed.propertyTabs extension point can be used to add new tabs.
<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.views.properties.tabbed.propertyTabs">
<propertyTabs contributorId="mview.views.SampleView">
<propertyTab
category="sample"
id="mview.ButtonTab"
label="Button"/>
<propertyTab
afterTab="mview.ButtonTab"
category="sample"
id="mview.AdvancedTab"
label="Advanced"/>
</propertyTabs>
</extension>
However in my case the tabs of property view vary depending on the item selected in view. So I have to add the tabs dynamically into extension depening on the item selected.
Please suggest how to do so.
Update:
One of the way to do so (I am not sure if its adviced) is using IExtensionRegistry.addContribution() method. Here I provided an inputstream object containing desired extension details. This added tabs to property view at run time. However with change in selection of item in list viewer, the property view is not updated. Please suggest if this is the right approach to do so.
Ok, I got the solution Its a two step process. Using this one can dyanamically add tabs (and their sections):
Step 1: Associate a tab descriptor provider with the view.
Add an extension point - org.eclipse.ui.views.properties.tabbed.propertyContributor to the view (if not already added). In the propertyContributor section, add a class for tabDescriptorProvider item. This class will implement ITabDescriptorProvider interface.
Step 2: Provide Tabs and Sections:
TabDescriptor provider will return array of TabDescriptors when its getTabDescriptor() method is called. Each TabDescriptor return a list of SectionDecriptors and each SectionDescriptor is linked to a Section. Finally it is the Section class that contains widgets to be displayed on screen. Each widget in Section class has a modify listner which updates the properties of selected items.
While the answer from Viral may not match the specific needs of the OP, the provided answer is likely acceptable to many.
If a tab does not have any sections to display, the default TabbedPropertySheetPage will not show that tab. Thus, if the problem domain is specified in terms of IFilter implementing classes, "dynamic" tabs may be achieved.
Tabs will be added or be removed as the selection changes depending upon whether any sections are present. A visible tab may have one or more sections present on it, and the number of sections on a visible tab may change from selection to selection.
As I came across this page with the same basic issue, I was a bit disappointed that I would need to intervene in the way the OP suggested. After some experimentation, I was able to achieve what I needed purely through the IFilter approach as suggested by Viral.
A tutorial is provided at http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-Tabbed-Properties/tabbed_properties_view.html
You need to define a new YourPropertySection derived fromAbstract PropertySection . Also define a filter derived from IFilter and override the select method to return true only for the desired type of selection. Then in plugin.xml write an extension point which would map your PropertySection to the required PropertyTab and will also associate your filter. So this section & tab will only show when your filter returns true.

In my project, I need to create a list of feeds, something like:
I think to create a XAML content view, but how can use it as a cell?
Is it a good approach?
I think the best way to go is to choose Data Template Selector. If you use Data Template Selector, You can Choose a DataTemplate (view) at runtime based on the value of a data-bound property. Lets say, In your case, your List view might have 3/4 or any number of different kind of ViewCell. Based on the type of cell you want to display different view cell.
There is a nice tutorial on Xamarin doc, you can read at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/xamarin-forms/app-fundamentals/templates/data-templates/selector
Read this one after that (this is a example for Chat App using ViewCell) https://blog.xamarin.com/customizing-list-view-cells-xamarin-forms-datatemplateselector/
Let me know if you need any specific help after reading that.
It is possible to define pagination on document library?
I have a document library with more that 10000 documents... when I open the library occurs an timeout.
Actually SenseNet already does this! They just don't deliver it in the standard list control. If you open up the PRC and navigate to /Root/IMS/BuiltIn/Portal you'll see a list control with paging. The code can be found at /Root/Global/renderers/UserExploreGrid.ascx as User Control portlet. You can copy the code and change it to meet your needs.
Our company prefers to create User Control portlets and use Datatables with calls to the SenseNet OData API using skip and top to deliver pages.
Finally, given that SenseNet Content is stored as a tree structure (in SQL!), you can move the Content after creation so that data is organized hierarchically. A common solution is to take the first letter of the DisplayName and create a sub-folder from that letter, thereby reducing the number of items at a single node.
Here's what the paging looks like:
The short answer is no. Right now there isn't a built in functionality for that.
The long answer is that you can make a pagination yourself. One of the core member of sensenet made a grid where you can use pagination. It won't work with the current free to use releases because they lack the js files she used. But the idea behind it, is using a custom view. Which you can achieve by adding a system folder named Views under a the Document library and adding your custom view there.
You can use this grid for Explore, just follow these steps:
Go to the Explore action page, and switch editor mode on the PRC.
Place a ClientContext portlet (this can find under the Portlets->Application section in the portlet picker dialog) to the Wide column. Set portlet (client context porlet) properties, Apparance to None. It is a technical portlet, which allow get the CurrentContext in javascript. This is a very important element to work with this grid. The Grid use the client context.
Place a UserControlPortlet (In the portlet picker, Portlets->Application section) to the Wide Column.
Set portlet properties:
4.1. Portlet title: <%$ Resources: PortletTitles, Items%>
4.2. User Control path: /Root/Global/renderers/UserExploreGrid.ascx
Checkin Page modification on the PRC.
Enjoy your pageable explore portlet.
Keep in mind that this grid is specifically designed for users, so they will miss actions in the top menu. These must be handwritten. Then I suggest you copy the UserControl ( /Root/Global/renderers/UserExploreGrid.ascx)
and then put the action list on it . You can read more info about action list here: http://wiki.sensenet.com/ActionList

I want to change default values which gets populated in the below picture.
I tried modifying get_v_role method but it didn't serve my purpose.
Please help.
In personalize->personalize settings, there is sort option. It sometimes overwrites this arrangement of values of get_v method.
Also code can be written in inbound plug of this view. I did it for overview page drop down and it worked. You can try for your search page.
For filtering/changing drop-down value of search parameter, You've to Re-define GET_DQUERY_DEFINITIONS method of ZCL_XXX_IMPL class of component. GET_V_XX methods are only used to modify drop-down/F4 help of view pages not the search view.
STEPS:
Click F2 while placing the cursor on Account ID(for which parameter you want
to modify) drop-down.
Go to BSP Component using t-code - BSP_WD_CMPWB
Enter the component name and Enhancement set
Select the view.
Go to Implementation class .
If your component is enhanced then it will be having ZCL_XXX_IMPL class. otherwise you've to enhance that component. Click on that class.
After that find GET_DQUERY_DEFINITIONS method and implement same way as
GET_V_XXX.
I'm currently developing a Windows 8 Store app that uses a Grouped GridView in the HubPage showing Highlights for some Categories. So far, when clicking the Header you see More Highlights for this Category.
Now i want to add a control at the end of every Group leading the User to the "non-highlight" Category site, where just all the Items of this category are displayed.
Is there an easy and elegant way to do this - propably with a Template is suppose.
( i think the latest Bing-News-App has a similar feature )
Thanks in advance for every help.
There are a couple of ways you can do this.
You can add an arbitrary object to the end of your group, then use a DataTemplateSelector to style it.
You can create your own VariableSizedWrapGrid with the control added to the end in the constructor (slash "Arrange"). You can then add an arbitrary click handler as a dependency property and only show the button if the click handler is set, so you can reuse this on other pages, etc.
You can change the GroupStyle to include something similar at the end of the group, but it likely won't animate with the other items in the group (if that's important to you).
The easiest one to do is probably the first one. If your group is a list of SampleItems then make a subclass of the SampleItem class called something similar to TerminalSampleItem. Create a template for it (like you've made other data templates). Make an ItemTemplateSelector that has two properties, NonTerminalDataTemplate and TerminalDataTemplate (assuming you only have two data templates). Have the SelectTemplateOverride function check for (item is TerminalSampleItem);
Currently, when I contribute property pages to Eclipse using the org.eclipse.ui.propertyPages extension point, the individual property pages show up in the property dialog in alphabetical order based on the pages name.
Is there a way to control the order that property pages are listed? I want the basic property page to always show up first, with less important page after it.
I've tried changing the id of the page, but it doesn't appear to have any effect.
Any suggestions?
FWIW: It looks like base eclipse can do it ... in the contributePropertyPage method of RegistryPageContributor, it sets the priority of the PropertyPageNode to -1 if the property page id is "org.eclipse.ui.propertypages.info.file". This is exactly what I want to do.
Figured it out!
What I needed to do is provide my own ContributionComparator in my WorkbenchAdvisor class.
The ContributionComparator has a compare method that allows me to determine the sort order of items in the property page list.
Found the information here.
You could make the less important page a sub-property page of the basic property page.
You could use a hide / show method to put all the properties on the same page.
