Package org.eclipse.ui.navigator

Provides the Common Navigator framework. Services allow clients to contribute reusable content/label providers and define viewers that use the available content/label providers.

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
ICommonActionConstants	Defines constants for the retargetable actions available in the Common Viewer context menu.
ICommonActionExtensionSite	Provides access to information required for the initialization of CommonActionProviders.
ICommonContentExtensionSite	Provides initialization data for a content extension.
ICommonContentProvider	Allows extensions to vary their behavior based on properties in the extension model and the given memento.
ICommonFilterDescriptor	Provides information about a commonFilter extension.
ICommonLabelProvider	Allows extensions to vary their behavior based on properties in the extension model and the given memento.
ICommonMenuConstants	Defines strings used for menu insertion points.
ICommonViewerMapper	Allows improved performance by optimizing label updates of the CommonViewer.
ICommonViewerSite	Provides context for extensions including a valid shell, a selection provider, and a unique identifier corresponding to the abstract viewer behind the viewer site.
ICommonViewerWorkbenchSite	Provides a page, set of action bars, menu registration callback, and active window.
IDescriptionProvider	Label providers (as specified by the labelProvider attribute of the org.eclipse.ui.navigator.navigatorContent extension point) may choose to also implement this interface in order to provide text for the status bar at the bottom of the Eclipse window.
IExtensionActivationListener	An extension activation listener is notified whenever the activation state changes for one or more content extensions.
IExtensionStateModel	Allows clients to coordinate state across components that are part of the same logical extension.
ILinkHelper	Provides information to the Common Navigator on how to link selections with active editors and vice versa.
IMementoAware	Clients may use mementos to persist interesting state between sessions.
INavigatorActivationService	Determines if an extension is active within the context of a given viewer and manages the persistence of this information.
INavigatorContentDescriptor	The descriptor provides a the low-level handle to a content extension.
INavigatorContentExtension	The content extension represents the components of a navigatorContent extension.
INavigatorContentService	Manages content extensions for extensible viewers and provides reusable services for filters, sorting, the activation of content extensions, and DND.
INavigatorContentServiceListener	Used by clients who would like to listen for the load event of am INavigatorContentExtension.
INavigatorDnDService	Provides instances of CommonDragAdapterAssistant and CommonDropAdapterAssistant for the associated INavigatorContentService.
INavigatorFilterService	Provides support for managing the filters defined for a Common Navigator viewer.
INavigatorPipelineService	Performs calculations that are necessary to determine the correct children to render in the viewer.
INavigatorSaveablesService
INavigatorSorterService	Provides an interface to extensions declared in org.eclipse.ui.navigator.navigatorContent/commonSorter.
INavigatorViewerDescriptor	Provides a basic metadata about the abstract viewer for a particular content service.
IPipelinedTreeContentProvider	To correctly implement pipelining you should implement IPipelinedTreeContentProvider2 which provides the additional ITreeContentProvider.hasChildren(Object) method.
IPipelinedTreeContentProvider2	A pipelined content provider allows an extension to reshape the contributions of an upstream content extension.

Class Summary

Class	Description
CommonActionProvider	Provides actions from extensions for menu and IActionBars contributions.
CommonDragAdapter	Provides an implementation of DragSourceAdapter which uses the extensions provided by the associated INavigatorContentService.
CommonDragAdapterAssistant	Assist the CommonDragAdapter by providing new TransferTypes and the logic to handle setting up the transfer data.
CommonDropAdapter	Provides an implementation of PluginDropAdapter which uses the extensions provided by the associated INavigatorContentService.
CommonDropAdapterAssistant	Used by the org.eclipse.ui.navigator.navigatorContent/navigatorContent/commonDropAdapter extension point to carry out pluggable drop operations.
CommonNavigator	This class provides the IViewPart for the Common Navigator framework in the Eclipse workbench.
CommonNavigatorManager	Manages the non-viewer responsibilities of the Common Navigator View Part, including the display and population of the context menu and the registration of extensions for opening content.
CommonViewer	Provides the Tree Viewer for the Common Navigator.
CommonViewerSiteFactory	Allows clients to create ICommonViewerSite for a variety of contexts.
CommonViewerSorter	Provides an implementation of TreeViewerSorter that uses the given parent to determine the correct sort order based on the defined org.eclipse.ui.navigator.navigatorContent/navigatorContent/commonSorter elements available in the set of visible content extensions.
LinkHelperService	Manages the link helpers which are used to define the behavior of the link with editor function.
MenuInsertionPoint	A descriptive construct to relay information about a menu insertion point; including the name of the insertion point and whether the item should be rendered as a separator or group marker.
NavigatorActionService	Provides context menu items and IActionBars contributions for a particular abstract viewer.
NavigatorContentServiceFactory	Provides a factory pattern for creating INavigatorContentServices for given viewer ids.
OverridePolicy	Enumeration of the OverridePolicy values supported by the Common Navigator.
PipelinedShapeModification	Indicates how a shape modification should be transformed when applied to the tree.
PipelinedViewerUpdate	A pipelined viewer update should map requests to refresh or update elements in the viewer to their correct, modified structure.
Priority	Enumeration of the Priority values supported by the Common Navigator.
SaveablesProvider	Provides Saveable objects to the common navigator, and allows to map between elements in the tree and models.
WizardActionGroup	Populates context menus with shortcut actions for defined wizards.
