What was a derivative of org.esa.beam.framework.ui.application.support.AbstractToolView
public class ${NAME}ToolView extends AbstractToolView { ... } |
becomes a derivative of org.openide.windows.TopComponent
:
public class ${NAME}TopComponent extends TopComponent { ... } |
In most toolwindows we had a help button, created and initialised like this:
AbstractButton helpButton = ToolButtonFactory.createButton(UIUtils.loadImageIcon("icons/Help22.png"), false); helpButton.setToolTipText("Help."); /*I18N*/ helpButton.setName("helpButton"); ... if (getDescriptor().getHelpId() != null) { HelpSys.enableHelpOnButton(helpButton, getDescriptor().getHelpId()); HelpSys.enableHelpKey(mainPane, getDescriptor().getHelpId()); } |
This code can be replaced by within a ${NAME}TopComponent.initComponents()
method as follows:
AbstractButton helpButton = ToolButtonFactory.createButton(new HelpAction(this), false); helpButton.setName("helpButton"); |
We can use new HelpAction(this)
, because this
is a TopComponent
which is always HelpCtx.Provider
. To provide context-sensitive help also add
@Override public HelpCtx getHelpCtx() { return new HelpCtx(HELP_ID); } |
