All Implemented Interfaces:
IElementSelectionListener

public abstract class ElementSelectionComposite
extends java.lang.Object
implements IElementSelectionListener

The element selection composite. The composite functional similar to the JDT select type dialog. There is a filter field and a table containing a list of elements to select from.

The element selection composite requires an IElementSelectionInput as input for the element selection service.

Subclasses must override the isValidSelection(java.util.List)and handleSelection(boolean) to provide custom validation.


Constructor Summary
ElementSelectionComposite (java.lang.String title, AbstractElementSelectionInput input)
          Constructs a new instance that will create the new composite.
ElementSelectionComposite (java.lang.String title, AbstractElementSelectionInput input, ElementSelectionService elementSelectionService)
          Constructs a new instance that will create the new composite.
 
Method Summary
 void cancel ()
          Cancel the job running the element selection service.
  Composite createComposite ( Composite parent)
          Creates the composite.
