I'm currently developing an Eclipse RCP application, in which I'm trying to implement a custom splash screen handler, sporting a progress bar (behavior similar to the default progress bar you can define in the .product definition) and multiple cycling background images.
After editing the extensions of the main application plugin this way:
[...]
<!-- install custom splash handler -->
<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.splashHandlers">
<splashHandler
class="com.example.application.splash.SlideShowSplashHandler"
id="splash.slideshow">
</splashHandler>
<splashHandlerProductBinding
productId="com.example.application.product"
splashId="com.example.application.splash.slideshow">
</splashHandlerProductBinding>
</extension>
<!-- define images (in plugin root directory) to be shown -->
<extension point="com.example.application.splashExtension">
<splashExtension id="01" image="01_Splash2Ag.bmp"></splashExtension>
<splashExtension id="02" image="02_Splash3Ag.bmp"></splashExtension>
<splashExtension id="00" image="00_Splash1Ag.bmp"></splashExtension>
</extension>
[...]I'm trying to implement the custom splashscreen handler class:
public class SlideShowSplashHandler extends AbstractSplashHandler {
private List<Image> fImageList;
private ProgressBar fBar;
private final static String F_SPLASH_EXTENSION_ID = "com.example.application.splashExtension"; //NON-NLS-1
private final static String F_ELEMENT_IMAGE = "image"; //NON-NLS-1
private int imageIdx = 0;
public SlideShowSplashHandler() {
fImageList = new ArrayList<Image>(5);
}
/* (non-Javadoc)
* @see org.eclipse.ui.splash.AbstractSplashHandler#init(org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell)
*/
public void init(Shell splash) {
// Store the shell
super.init(splash);
// Force shell to inherit the splash background
getSplash().setBackgroundMode(SWT.INHERIT_DEFAULT);
// Load all splash extensions
loadSplashExtensions();
// If no splash extensions were loaded abort the splash handler
if (hasSplashExtensions() == false) return;
// Create UI
createUI(splash);
}
private boolean hasSplashExtensions() {
if (fImageList.isEmpty()) {
return false;
} else {
return true;
}
}
@Override
public IProgressMonitor getBundleProgressMonitor() {
return new NullProgressMonitor() {
@Override
public void beginTask(String name, final int totalWork) {
getSplash().getDisplay().syncExec(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
fBar.setSelection(50);
}
});
}
@Override
public void subTask(String name) {
getSplash().getDisplay().syncExec(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
if (fBar.getSelection() < 100) fBar.setSelection(fBar.getSelection() + 10);
if (imageIdx >= fImageList.size()) imageIdx = 0;
Image image = fImageList.get(imageIdx++);
getSplash().setBackgroundImage(image);
getSplash().setRedraw(true);
getSplash().redraw();
}
});
}
};
}
private void createUI(Shell shell) {
Composite container = new Composite(shell, SWT.NONE);
container.setLayout(new GridLayout(1, false));
container.setLocation(5, 374);
container.setSize(480, 15);
/* Progress Bar */
fBar = new ProgressBar(container, SWT.HORIZONTAL);
fBar.setLayoutData(new GridData(SWT.FILL, SWT.BEGINNING, true, false));
((GridData) fBar.getLayoutData()).heightHint = 13;
fBar.setMaximum(100);
fBar.setSelection(25);
/* Version Label */
Label versionLabel = new Label(container, SWT.NONE);
versionLabel.setLayoutData(new GridData(SWT.END, SWT.BEGINNING, true, false));
//versionLabel.setFont(fVersionFont);
//versionLabel.setForeground(fVersionColor);
//versionLabel.setText(NLS.bind(Messages.SplashHandler_BUILD, "2.1 Nightly")); //$NON-NLS-1$
/* Layout All */
shell.layout(true, true);
}
private void loadSplashExtensions() {
// Get all splash handler extensions
IExtension[] extensions = Platform.getExtensionRegistry()
.getExtensionPoint(F_SPLASH_EXTENSION_ID).getExtensions();
// Process all splash handler extensions
for (int i = 0; i < extensions.length; i++) {
processSplashExtension(extensions[i]);
}
}
/**
* Parse the extension points with the images filename.
*/
private void processSplashExtension(IExtension extension) {
// Get all splash handler configuration elements
IConfigurationElement[] elements = extension.getConfigurationElements();
// Process all splash handler configuration elements
for (int j = 0; j < elements.length; j++) {
processSplashElements(elements[j]);
}
}
/**
* Create the images defined as extension points
*/
private void processSplashElements(IConfigurationElement configurationElement) {
String name = configurationElement.getAttribute(F_ELEMENT_IMAGE);
ImageDescriptor descriptor = Activator.getImageDescriptor("/"+name);
if (descriptor != null) {
Image image = descriptor.createImage();
if (image !=null) {
fImageList.add(image);
}
}
}
public void dispose() {
super.dispose();
// Check to see if any images were defined
if ((fImageList == null) ||
fImageList.isEmpty()) {
return;
}
// Dispose of all the images
Iterator<Image> iterator = fImageList.iterator();
while (iterator.hasNext()) {
Image image = iterator.next();
image.dispose();
}
}
}Problem is that the progress bar just works, while the images are not shown. While debugging I could verify that the images are actually found and loaded, and correctly set in the shell; the shell just seems to not being redrawn. Am i missing something?=
