Items decorations in a TreeViewer - java

I have the following problem:
I'm preparing an editor in Eclipse and one of the tab contains TreeViewer to show items in the tree. Each item has a name and a value, which is editable.
The problem I need to indicate to user that value is incorrect (e.g. exceeds a given range). My idea is to decorate incorrect cells with a warning or error icon which will be shown also after editing is complete.
Does anybody have an idea how to decorate items in the tree? I was experimenting with ControlDecoration class but without success.
Thanks in advance,
Marcin
PS. I'm limited to Eclipse 3.4

There are two ways that this can be done. If your TreeViewer displays objects that are instances of EObject (generated by EMF. If your don't understand this part, skip to the next paragraph :)), you can change these EObject's "XyzItemProvider" so that their "getImage" method return a decorated image instead of the "plain" image... and that's it for EMF objects, nothing else needs to be changed.
If you're displaying "classic" Java Objects, you'll have to change your TreeViewer's LabelProvider in order to decorate the Image. This is done through the TreeViewer#setLabelProvider() method.
What you will need then is "how to decorate an Image", which is done through code such as this :
public class MyLabelProvider extends DecoratingLabelProvider {
public Image getImage(Object element) {
Image image = super.getImage(element);
List<Object> images = new ArrayList<Object>(2);
images.add(image);
images.add(<Image of the decorator>);
labelImage = new ComposedImage(images); // This will put the second of the "images" list (the decorator) above the first (the element's image)
return decoratedImage;
}
[...]
}
You then need to give your tree viewer this label provider :
TreeViewer treeViewer = new TreeViewer(...);
treeViewer.setLabelProvider(new MyLabelProvider(new LabelProvider()); // new LabelProvider()... or your previous label provider if you have one.

JasperReports export to Excel uses only last set background color

Im pretty pretty new to Dynamic-Jasper, but due to work i had to add a new feature to our already implemented solution.
My Problem
The Goal is to add a Column to a report that consists only out of a background-color based on some Information. I managed to do that, but while testing I stumbled upon a Problem. While all my Columns in the html and pdf view had the right color, the Excel one only colored the fields in the last Color.
While debugging i noticed, that the same colored Fields had the same templateId, but while all Views run through mostly the same Code the Excel one showed different behavior and had the same ID in all fields.
My Code where I manipulate the template
for(JRPrintElement elemt : jasperPrint.getPages().get(0).getElements()) {
if(elemt instanceof JRTemplatePrintText) {
JRTemplatePrintText text = (JRTemplatePrintText) elemt;
(...)
if (text.getFullText().startsWith("COLOR_IDENTIFIER")) {
String marker = text.getFullText().substring(text.getFullText().indexOf('#') + 1);
text.setText("ID = " + ((JRTemplatePrintText) elemt).getTemplate().getId());
int rgb = TypeConverter.string2int(Integer.parseInt(marker, 16) + "", 0);
((JRTemplatePrintText) elemt).getTemplate().setBackcolor(new Color(rgb));
}
}
}
The html view
The Excel view
Temporary Conclusion
The same styles uses the same Objects in the background and the JR-Excel export messes something up by assigning the same Object to all the Fields that I manipulated there. If anyone knows of a misstake by me or potential Solutions to change something different to result the same thing please let me know.
Something different I tried earlier, was trying to set the field in an evaluate Method that was called by Jasper. In that method we assign the textvalue of each field. It contained a map with JRFillFields, but unfortunatelly the Map-Implementation denied access to them and just retuned the Value of those. The map was provided by dj and couldn't be switched with a different one.
Edit
We are using JasperReports 6.7.1
I found a Solution, where I replaced each template with a new one that was supposed to look exactly alike. That way every Field has its own ID guaranteed and its not up to chance, how JasperReports handles its Data internaly.
JRTemplateElement custom =
new JRTemplateText(((JRTemplatePrintText) elemt).getTemplate().getOrigin(),
((JRTemplatePrintText) elemt).getTemplate().getDefaultStyleProvider());
custom.setBackcolor(new Color(rgb));
custom.setStyle(((JRTemplatePrintText) elemt).getTemplate().getStyle());
((JRTemplatePrintText) elemt).setTemplate(custom);

How to correct a display problem when inserting a row in a JavaFX grid?

I want to insert a new JavaFX bean in a grid using an "insert" button. Everything is fine, except for a display problem. After insertion, a "ghost selection" is displayed lower in the grid, as shown in this screenshot. In this example, a fourth section bean was added and selected as requested. But a fake selection appears 10 lines under the last real bean, where no bean is set for this row.
Has anyone experienced this kind of behavior? Any clue how get rid of this ghost selection? Here is what the code for the insert button looks like:
#FXML
private Button insert;
...
insert.setOnAction(event -> {
JfxBean newBean = createBean();
tableView.getItems().add(newBean);
int index = tableView.getItems().indexOf(newBean);
tableView.getSelectionModel().clearSelection();
tableView.requestFocus();
tableView.scrollTo(index);
tableView.getSelectionModel().focus(index);
tableView.getSelectionModel().select(index);
};
According to javaFX-8 documentation, SelectionModel.java does not expose any focus() method. FocusModel.java does instead. Therefore JVM will fail to compile your presented code.
Below is a possible solution:
insert.setOnAction(event -> {
JfxBean newBean = createBean();
tableView.getItems().add(newBean);
int index = tableView.getItems().indexOf(newBean);
tableView.getSelectionModel().clearSelection();
tableView.requestFocus();
tableView.scrollTo(index);
// below line is the amendment
tableView.getFocusModel().focus(index);
tableView.getSelectionModel().select(index);
};
Finally, adding tableView.refresh() corrected this weird behavior. No more ghost selection.

Text duplication

I am working on simple text editor and on main panel, I have JList with currently opened files (CDocument class) and active document, which contents is shown (also CDocument class). I store opened files (CDocument objects) in vector and on the right side the active document is shown.
Now, at program start, there is no active document and opened document list is empty. After I click File->New, I create new, empty object from class CDocument. If I enter something into active document area (the red region on screenshot) and then I reclick File->New, I get new, empty (with no text - I've doublechecked with ) CDocument object. But, the text from previous active document still shows into newly created (red region - newly empty CDocument). I am busting my brain here because I do not know why?! Here is File->New code chunck:
`
if(e.getSource()==this.menuItemFileNew())
{
CDocument currentDocument=new CDocument();
if(this.panelMain().documentActive()!=null)
{
this.panelMain().remove(this.panelMain().documentActive());
}
this.panelMain().openedDocuments().add(currentDocument);
this.panelMain().setDocumentActive(currentDocument);
this.panelMain().add(panelMain().documentActive().pane(),
BorderLayout.CENTER);
this.panelMain().documentActive().addKeyListener(this);
this.panelMain().documentActive().requestFocus();
this.menuItemFileSave().setEnabled(true);
this.menuItemFileSaveAs().setEnabled(true);
this.menuItemFileClose().setEnabled(true);
this.menuItemFileCloseAll().setEnabled(true);
this.toolBarFileSwitcher().panelActiveDocumentInfo().
panelFileSizeInfo().updatePanel(this.panelMain().documentActive().getText().length(),
false);
this.toolBarFileSwitcher().listOpenedFiles().model().addElement(currentDocument.filename());
this.toolBarFileSwitcher().listOpenedFiles().setSelectedIndex(this.toolBarFileSwitcher().listOpenedFiles().model().size()-1);
this.toolBarFileSwitcher().setVisible(true);
}
`
Why is text shown, I've tried updateUI, repaint, nothing works!
Use Action to encapsulate functionality related to your CDocument data type. This will help ensure that all invocations are consistent. This example manages images, while this example illustrates a menu of files.

Custom Zk Combobox

as seen in:
http://www.zkoss.org/zkdemo/combobox/simple_combobox
When the item is selected only text appears.
How can I make the image + name appear when the item is selected?
which method from Combobox do i need to override?
ty
There is no build-in way for you to do things like that. Because a Combobox is just a textbox with a customizable drop-down list.
But this can be done pretty easily. You can just add an Image at left of the combobox, and listen combobox Events.ON_SELECT event. Then update the Image according to selected item.
Here is an example code (assuming use SelectorComposer)
#Listen("onSelect = combobox#mycmb")
public void onComboboxSelected(SelectEvent event) {
Set<MyObject> selectedObjects = event.getSelectedObjects();
MyObject obj = selectedObjects.get(0);
image.setSrc(getImagePath(obj)); // image are Image component you wired.
}
Note : I didn't test the code, but you should get the idea

How to right-align text in a SWT Table cell?

I have a SWT table which wrapped by the JFace TableViewer, but this problem also applies to org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Table.
When I use a StyledCellLabelProvider, the text is always left aligned, even when I use
colA.getColumn().setAlignment(SWT.RIGHT);
Here is the label provider and setup:
TableViewerColumn colA = new TableViewerColumn(measureTable, SWT.NONE);
colA.setLabelProvider(new StyledCellLabelProvider() {
#Override
public void update(ViewerCell cell) {
ModelItem item = (ModelItem) cell.getElement();
cell.setFont(FONT_REGISTRY.get(MY_SPECIAL_FONT));
cell.setText(item.getText());
super.update(cell);
}
});
Any sort of workaround would be great. For e.g, nesting a widget inside the table and right aligning the text in the widget somehow.
Platform: Windows 7
You found a bug in StyledCellLabelProvider. It will not occur with any other CellLabelProvider.
StyledCellLabelProvider uses "owner draw" for drawing the Table cells. That means, the cell content is not drawn natively by the OS. It is drawn in an SWT.PaintItem event by the Table "owner".
StyledCellLabelProvider does not respect the alignment of the TableColumn. You can see the source here, the method getTextLayoutForInfo(.) is of interest.
A workaround could be to copy that class, fix the bug by adding
TableColumn col = ((Table)viewer.getControl()).getColumn(cell.getColumnIndex());
layout.setAlignment(col.getAlignment());
in the method getTextLayoutForInfo(.) (I didn't test this fix, but if it doesn't work, you should get the idea, and be able to make it work)
You should also add a bug report: Eclipse Bugzilla
