Class StructuredDialog

java.lang.Object
  com.sdm.quasar.client.core.dialog.AbstractFeature
      com.sdm.quasar.client.showcase.swing.dialogs.structured.StructuredDialog

All Implemented Interfaces:

Feature, StructuredDialogActions, SystemInfoProvider

public class StructuredDialog

extends AbstractFeature

implements StructuredDialogActions

This is an example class demonstrates how to build a structured dialog (with presentation and dialog core). This class represents the dialog core.

The configuration of this dialog installs two features:

• This class (StructuredDialog) representing the dialog core with dialog data and dialog actions,
• and the presentation class StructuredDialogPresentation which uses the dialog core to access the data and to execute an action.

The connection from the presentation to the dialog core is made by the presentation with a call to DialogControl.getFeature( StructuredDialog.class)

In this case, the data is a simple data bean (StructuredDialogData) which is stored in an observable com.sdm.util.model.ValueModel that can be accessed using getStructuredDialogDataValueModel(). Alternatively you can use a separate model which can be either accessed by a getter on the dialog core or provided as a separate feature. In a more complex version the model can even be a DataManager.

The action is provided in form of a simple method StructuredDialogActions.changeMessage(). Alternatively you may use a com.sdm.quasar.client.core.actions.ActionProvider or com.sdm.quasar.client.core.events.StatefulEventProcessor as a dialog event mechanism.

Method Detail

init

protected void init()

Description copied from class: AbstractFeature

Called when the feature is initializing. This is normally done, when the feature is connected to the lifecycle of the DialogControl installed to. To access the DialogControl use the AbstractFeature.getDialogControl() method.

Override this method to perform some action on initialization e.g. register public services.

Specified by:

init in class AbstractFeature

dispose

protected void dispose()
                throws DisposeException

Description copied from class: AbstractFeature

Called when the feature or dialog is disposed. Override this method to clean up resources and free memory when disposing.

Specified by:

dispose in class AbstractFeature

Throws:

DisposeException

getStructuredDialogDataValueModel

public ValueModel getStructuredDialogDataValueModel()

Provide the StructuredDialogData wrapped in a ValueHolder.

changeMessage

public void changeMessage()

Description copied from interface: StructuredDialogActions

Request to change the message
