[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (GPD-77) Need a way to initialize palette objects in GD 3.1

------------------------------
Koen,
Moving the initialize() call to SemanticElementFactory doesn't seem to work for me,
for the following reason:
While initialize() is correctly being invoked when dropping something from my palettte:
Decide(AbstractDecide).initialize() line: 21
SemanticElementFactory.createById(String) line: 30
CreationFactory.getNewObject() line: 34
CreateRequest.getNewObject() line: 73
...
it is also invoked as part of reading the diagram (which is not good as it will reset
properties that potentially have been modified):
Decide(AbstractDecide).initialize() line: 21
SemanticElementFactory.createById(String) line: 30
ProcessDefinitionDomAdapter(XmlAdapter).createSemanticElementFor(XmlAdapter) line: 476
ProcessDefinitionDomAdapter.doModelAdd(XmlAdapter) line: 157
ProcessDefinitionDomAdapter(XmlAdapter).initialize(SemanticElement) line: 462
ProcessDefinitionDomAdapter.initialize(SemanticElement) line: 94
XpdlEditor(Editor).getSemanticElement(StructuredTextEditor) line: 163
XpdlEditor(Editor).initSourcePage() line: 145
XpdlEditor(Editor).createPages() line: 84
XpdlEditor(JpdlEditor).createPages() line: 134
XpdlEditor(MultiPageEditorPart).createPartControl(Composite) line: 276
EditorReference.createPartHelper() line: 596
EditorReference.createPart() line: 372
...
Invoking initialize() (or possibly named: initializeNew/initializeFromPalette etc.) in
org.jbpm.gd.common.editor.CreationFactory DOES work, as it will not get invoked when
reading the diagram:
public Object getNewObject() {
String notationElementId = NotationMapping.getNotationElementId(elementId);
NotationElement notationElement = notationElementFactory.create(notationElementId);
if (notationElement instanceof Node) {
Dimension dimension = NotationMapping.getInitialDimension(elementId);
if (dimension != null) {
Rectangle constraint = ((Node)notationElement).getConstraint();
constraint.setSize(new Dimension(dimension));
}
}
SemanticElement jpdlElement = semanticElementFactory.createById(elementId);
jpdlElement.initializeNew(); // I added my code here...
notationElement.setSemanticElement(jpdlElement);
return notationElement;
}
Please let me know if you need more info!

Need a way to initialize palette objects in GD 3.1
--------------------------------------------------
Key: GPD-77
URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/GPD-77
Project: JBoss jBPM GPD
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: jpdl
Affects Versions: jBPM JPDL Designer 3.1.0.alpha4
Reporter: John Ruud
Assigned To: Koen Aers
Fix For: jBPM JPDL Designer 3.1.0.beta2
Attachments: GPD-77.patch
For example, whenever an 'EndState' node is added to the diagram, I need for it
to be initialized with a particular event, action, and some action properties. I have made
some minor changes to the GD code in order to support this, as described in the following
post: http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=108175
It would be very helpful if these changes, or similar functionality, can be included in
3.1, as I wouldn't need to keep maintaining my own custom version of the GD feature.
I'd be happy to post a patch, if that helps (while my changes are very simple, as
described in the post)
