Class PluginActivator

Method Details

• getInstance

  public static PluginActivator getInstance()

  Returns the shared instance.

  Returns:

  The shared instance.

• getDefault

  public static PluginActivator getDefault()

  Returns the default instance, required for the IIZI Plugin framework.

  Returns:

  The shared instance.

• start

  public void start(org.osgi.framework.BundleContext context) throws Exception

  Starts up the Terminal plug-in bundle.

  If this method throws an exception, it is taken as an indication that plug-in initialization has failed; as a result, the plug-in will not be activated; moreover, the plug-in will be marked as disabled and ineligible for activation for the duration.

  Note 1: This method is automatically invoked by the platform the first time any code in the plug-in is executed.

  Note 2: This method is intended to perform simple initialization of the plug-in environment. The platform may terminate initializers that do not complete in a timely fashion.

  Note 3: The class loader typically has monitors acquired during invocation of this method. It is strongly recommended that this method avoid synchronized blocks or other thread locking mechanisms, as this would lead to deadlock vulnerability.

  Note 4: The supplied bundle context represents the plug-in to the OSGi framework. For security reasons, it is strongly recommended that this object should not be divulged.

  Note 5: This method and the stop(BundleContext) may be called from separate threads, but the OSGi framework ensures that both methods will not be called simultaneously.

  Specified by:

  start in interface org.osgi.framework.BundleActivator

  Overrides:

  start in class AbstractUIPlugin

  Parameters:

  context - The bundle context.

  Throws:

  Exception - For errors in loading the IIZI properties framework.

• registerPlugin

  public void registerPlugin() throws CoreException

  Registers this plug-in with iiziGo. This method is called from IIZI Designer when an application requires the plug-in. The plug-in should check if registration already has been done, and if so, skip the registration. This is required due to the OSGi framework threading at startup of Eclipse.

  Specified by:

  registerPlugin in interface IPluginInitialize

  Throws:

  CoreException - For registration failures.

• initializeModule

  public void initializeModule(ModuleModel model) throws CoreException

  Initializes the plug-in after the Module project has been loaded.

  Specified by:

  initializeModule in interface IPluginInitialize

  Parameters:

  model - The Module project.

  Throws:

  CoreException - For initialization failures.

• onModuleProjectDisposed

  public void onModuleProjectDisposed(ModuleModel model)

  Called when a Module project is disposed of.

  Specified by:

  onModuleProjectDisposed in interface IModuleDisposeListener

• onModuleProjectDeconfigured

  public void onModuleProjectDeconfigured(ModuleModel model)

  Called when a Module project is de-configured from this plug-in.

  Specified by:

  onModuleProjectDeconfigured in interface IModuleDisposeListener

• getModuleContainer

  public ModuleFolderPropCnr getModuleContainer(ModuleModel model)

  Gets the Module Folder container for the Terminal plug-in.

  Parameters:

  model - The module model.

  Returns:

  The ModuleFolder for the type, null if defined for the project.

• createNewWizards

  Specified by:

  createNewWizards in interface IPluginInitialize

  Parameters:

  newWizards - Array of New Wizard's.

• stop

  public void stop(org.osgi.framework.BundleContext context) throws Exception

  Specified by:

  stop in interface org.osgi.framework.BundleActivator

  Overrides:

  stop in class AbstractUIPlugin

  Throws:

  Exception

• saveSessions

  public Exception saveSessions()

  Saves the sessions file.

  Returns:

  An error for error, otherwise null.

• getSessionsContainer

  public EditorSessionsProp getSessionsContainer()

  Gets the Sessions property container.

  Returns:

  The sessions property.

• getPluginDescriptor

  public static PluginDescriptor getPluginDescriptor()

  Gets the IIZI PluginDescriptor.

  Returns:

  The singleton.

• startupUI

  public static void startupUI()

  Method to call as soon as possible to load images and other UI stuff. If called from another thread than SWT, a syncExec is done.

• loadAWTIcon

  public Image loadAWTIcon(String fn)

  Loads an AWT image.

  Parameters:

  fn - The file name, relative the "icons" directory for the plug-in.

  Returns:

  The AWT image.

• loadIcon

  public static Image loadIcon(String fn)

  Load an image for this plugin.

  Parameters:

  fn - The file name, relative the "icons" directory for the plug-in.

  null if not found or plugin is not started.

• loadIcon

  public static Image loadIcon(Class<? extends GProp<?>> propClass, String fn)

  Load an image for this plugin.

  Parameters:

  propClass - The property class assigned.

  fn - The file name, relative the "icons" directory for the plug-in.

  Returns:

  null if not found or plugin is not started.

• getIcon

  public static ImageDescriptor getIcon(String fileName)

  Returns an image descriptor for the image file at the given plug-in relative path.

  Parameters:

  fileName - The image file name inside "icons".

  Returns:

  the image descriptor.

• onInitialLayout

  public void onInitialLayout(IPageLayout layout, IFolderLayout folder, IFolderLayout outlineFolder, IFolderLayout outputfolder)

  Called when the Module perspective has completed initializing itself with IIZI-related items. Once the plug-ins complete their processing, additional Java and Java-EE items are added.

  Specified by:

  onInitialLayout in interface IModulePerspective

  Parameters:

  layout - The page layout.

  folder - The folder area, left side.

  outlineFolder - The outline folder on the right side, perhaps null (be careful!).

  outputfolder - The output folder area, bottom placement.

• onProjectChanged

  public void onProjectChanged(IResourceDelta delta)

  Called during workspace change to inform the plug-in of a project change.

  Specified by:

  onProjectChanged in interface IProjectListener

  Parameters:

  delta - The resource delta.

• getServerApplicationSetupInstances

  public IServerApplicationSetup[] getServerApplicationSetupInstances(PropCnr moduleRoot)

  Queries for instances of the IServerApplicationSetup required. This call makes it possible to redirect the query to other properties. Most plug-ins would have a single instance.

  Specified by:

  getServerApplicationSetupInstances in interface IServerApplicationSetupProvider

  Parameters:

  moduleRoot - The root of the Module application.

  Returns:

  The IServerApplicationSetup instances that is participating in the setup.
