Detailed Description

A workbench is the root object for the BlueBerry Platform user interface.

A workbench has one or more main windows which present to the end user information based on some underlying model, typically on resources in an underlying workspace. A workbench usually starts with a single open window, and automatically closes when its last window closes.

Each workbench window has a collection of pages; the active page is the one that is being presented to the end user; at most one page is active in a window at a time.

Each workbench page has a collection of workbench parts, of which there are two kinds: views and editors. A page's parts are arranged (tiled or stacked) for presentation on the screen. The arrangement is not fixed; the user can arrange the parts as they see fit. A perspective is a template for a page, capturing a collection of parts and their arrangement.

The platform creates a workbench when the workbench plug-in is activated; since this happens at most once during the life of the running platform, there is only one workbench instance. Due to its singular nature, it is commonly referred to as <it>the</it> workbench.

The workbench supports a few services by default. If these services are used to allocate resources, it is important to remember to clean up those resources after you are done with them. Otherwise, the resources will exist until the workbench shuts down. The supported services are:

virtual IWorkbenchWindow::Pointer berry::IWorkbench::OpenWorkbenchWindow ( const QString &  perspectiveId,
IAdaptable input 
)
pure virtual

Creates and opens a new workbench window with one page. The perspective of the new page is defined by the specified perspective ID. The new window and new page become active.

Note: The caller is responsible to ensure the action using this method will explicitly inform the user a new window will be opened. Otherwise, callers are strongly recommended to use the openPerspective APIs to programmatically show a perspective to avoid confusing the user.

In most cases where this method is used the caller is tightly coupled to a particular perspective. They define it in the registry and contribute some user interface action to open or activate it. In situations like this a static variable is often used to identify the perspective ID.

Parameters
perspectiveIdthe perspective id for the window's initial page, or null for no initial page
inputthe page input, or null if there is no current input. This is used to seed the input for the new page's views.
Returns
the new workbench window
Exceptions
WorkbenchExceptionif a new window and page could not be opened

IWorkbench::showPerspective(String, IWorkbenchWindow, IAdaptable)

Referenced by berry::UITestCase::OpenTestWindow().

virtual IWorkbenchWindow::Pointer berry::IWorkbench::OpenWorkbenchWindow ( IAdaptable input)
pure virtual

Creates and opens a new workbench window with one page. The perspective of the new page is defined by the default perspective ID. The new window and new page become active.

Note: The caller is responsible to ensure the action using this method will explicitly inform the user a new window will be opened. Otherwise, callers are strongly recommended to use the openPerspective APIs to programmatically show a perspective to avoid confusing the user.

Parameters
inputthe page input, or null if there is no current input. This is used to seed the input for the new page's views.
Returns
the new workbench window
Exceptions
WorkbenchExceptionif a new window and page could not be opened

virtual void berry::IWorkbench::RemoveWindowListener ( IWindowListener listener)
pure virtual

virtual bool berry::IWorkbench::SaveAllEditors ( bool  confirm)
pure virtual

Parameters
confirmtrue to ask the user before saving unsaved changes (recommended), and false to save unsaved changes without asking
Returns
true if the command succeeded, and false if the operation was canceled by the user or an error occurred while saving
virtual SmartPointer<IWorkbenchPage> berry::IWorkbench::ShowPerspective ( const QString &  perspectiveId,
IWorkbenchWindow::Pointer  window 
)
pure virtual

Shows the specified perspective to the user. The caller should use this method when the perspective to be shown is not dependent on the page's input. That is, the perspective can open in any page depending on user preferences.

The perspective may be shown in the specified window, in another existing window, or in a new window depending on user preferences. The exact policy is controlled by the workbench to ensure consistency to the user. The policy is subject to change. The current policy is as follows:

  • If the specified window has the requested perspective open, then the window is given focus and the perspective is shown. The page's input is ignored.
  • If another window that has the workspace root as input and the requested perspective open and active, then the window is given focus.
  • Otherwise the requested perspective is opened and shown in the specified window or in a new window depending on the current user preference for opening perspectives, and that window is given focus.

The workbench also defines a number of menu items to activate or open each registered perspective. A complete list of these perspectives is available from the perspective registry found on IWorkbench.

Parameters
perspectiveIdthe perspective ID to show
windowthe workbench window of the action calling this method.
Returns
the workbench page that the perspective was shown
Exceptions
WorkbenchExceptionif the perspective could not be shown
Since
2.0

virtual SmartPointer<IWorkbenchPage> berry::IWorkbench::ShowPerspective ( const QString &  perspectiveId,
IWorkbenchWindow::Pointer  window,
IAdaptable input 
)
pure virtual

Shows the specified perspective to the user. The caller should use this method when the perspective to be shown is dependent on the page's input. That is, the perspective can only open in any page with the specified input.

The perspective may be shown in the specified window, in another existing window, or in a new window depending on user preferences. The exact policy is controlled by the workbench to ensure consistency to the user. The policy is subject to change. The current policy is as follows:

  • If the specified window has the requested perspective open and the same requested input, then the window is given focus and the perspective is shown.
  • If another window has the requested input and the requested perspective open and active, then that window is given focus.
  • If the specified window has the same requested input but not the requested perspective, then the window is given focus and the perspective is opened and shown on condition that the user preference is not to open perspectives in a new window.
  • Otherwise the requested perspective is opened and shown in a new window, and the window is given focus.

The workbench also defines a number of menu items to activate or open each registered perspective. A complete list of these perspectives is available from the perspective registry found on IWorkbench.

Parameters
perspectiveIdthe perspective ID to show
windowthe workbench window of the action calling this method.
inputthe page input, or null if there is no current input. This is used to seed the input for the page's views
Returns
the workbench page that the perspective was shown
Exceptions
WorkbenchExceptionif the perspective could not be shown
