    • dispose

      public void dispose()
      Description copied from class: Page

      Specified by:
      getControl in class Page
      Returns:
      the SWT control for this page, or null if this page does not have a control

    • setActionBars

      public void setActionBars(IActionBars actionBars)
      Description copied from class: Page
      This method exists for backward compatibility. Subclasses should reimplement init.

    • selectionChanged

      public void selectionChanged(IWorkbenchPart part, ISelection selection)
      Description copied from interface: ISelectionListener
      Notifies this listener that the selection has changed.

      Note: it is important that this method returns as quickly as possible to avoid UI freezes. For example, do not update the UI if the UI is not visible. See the SelectionListenerFactory for listeners that are build for this purpose.

      This method is called when the selection changes to a non-null value, but not when the selection changes to null. If there is a requirement to be notified in the latter scenario, implement INullSelectionListener. The event will be posted through this method.

      Specified by:
      selectionChanged in interface ISelectionListener
      Parameters:
      part - the workbench part containing the selection
      selection - the current selection. This may be null if INullSelectionListener is implemented.

    • resizeScrolledComposite

      public void resizeScrolledComposite()

    • disposeTabs

      protected void disposeTabs(Collection tabs)
      Disposes the TabContents objects passed to this method. If the 'currentTab' is going to be disposed, then the caller should call aboutToBeHidden() on the currentTab and set it to null before calling this method. Also, the caller needs to ensure that descriptorToTab map entries corresponding to the disposed TabContents objects are also removed.
      Parameters:
      tabs - tabs to dispose
      Since:
      3.6

    • updateTabs

      protected void updateTabs(ITabDescriptor[] descriptors)
      Update the current tabs to represent the given input object. When tabs apply for both the old and new input they are reused otherwise they are disposed. If the current visible tab will not be reused (i.e. will be disposed) we have to send it an aboutToBeHidden() message.
