GPD support for editing non-files (any IEditorInput, not just FileEditorInput)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GPD-67
URL:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/GPD-67
Project: JBoss jBPM GPD
Issue Type: Feature Request
Reporter: John Ruud
Assigned To: Koen Aers
Priority: Minor
We need to edit process defs that are stored in a DB, as opposed to the
processdefinition.xml, gpd.xml files stored in the workspace. There are currently many
dependencies to FileEditorInput/File throughout GPD (as is the case for a lot of other
Eclipse editors BTW).
It would be very helpful if it would be feasible to separate out the code that deals with
a particular type of IEditorInput from the rest of the editor, possibly into a separete
delegate class. For FileEditorInput the delegate would deal with reading, writing, and
syncronizing the view (resource listeners), plus whatever else I may have forgotten. We
could then replace the default "file" delegate with our own that knows how to
deal our DB (by subclassing of the editor would be fine).
Probably not the #1 GPD issue for many other users, but hopefully something you would keep
in mind...
