protected 
Object doGetValue()
The TextCellEditor implementation of this CellEditor framework method returns the text string.

Specified by:

value - a text string (type String)
See Also:
CellEditor.setValue(java.lang.Object)

editOccured

protected void editOccured(
ModifyEvent e)
Processes a modify event that occurred in this text cell editor. This framework method performs validation and sets the error message accordingly, and then reports a change via fireEditorValueChanged. Subclasses should call this method at appropriate times. Subclasses may extend or reimplement.

Parameters:
e - the SWT modify event

getLayoutData

public 
CellEditor.LayoutData getLayoutData()
Since a text editor field is scrollable we don't set a minimumSize.

Overrides:
getLayoutData in class CellEditor
Returns:
the layout data object

handleDefaultSelection

protected void handleDefaultSelection(
SelectionEvent event)
Handles a default selection event from the text control by applying the editor value and deactivating this cell editor.

Parameters:
event - the selection event
Since:
3.0

isCopyEnabled

public boolean isCopyEnabled()
The TextCellEditor implementation of this CellEditor method returns true if the current selection is not empty.

Overrides:
isCopyEnabled in class CellEditor
Returns:
true if copy is possible, false otherwise

isCutEnabled

public boolean isCutEnabled()
The TextCellEditor implementation of this CellEditor method returns true if the current selection is not empty.

Overrides:
isCutEnabled in class CellEditor
Returns:
true if cut is possible, false otherwise

isDeleteEnabled

public boolean isDeleteEnabled()
The TextCellEditor implementation of this CellEditor method returns true if there is a selection or if the caret is not positioned at the end of the text.

Overrides:
isDeleteEnabled in class CellEditor
Returns:
true if delete is possible, false otherwise

isPasteEnabled

public boolean isPasteEnabled()
The TextCellEditor implementation of this CellEditor method always returns true.

Overrides:
isPasteEnabled in class CellEditor
Returns:
true if paste is possible, false otherwise

isSaveAllEnabled

public boolean isSaveAllEnabled()
Check if save all is enabled

Returns:
true if it is

isSelectAllEnabled

public boolean isSelectAllEnabled()
Returns true if this cell editor is able to perform the select all action.

This default implementation always returns false.

Subclasses may override

Overrides:
isSelectAllEnabled in class CellEditor
Returns:
true if select all is possible, false otherwise

keyReleaseOccured

protected void keyReleaseOccured(
KeyEvent keyEvent)
Processes a key release event that occurred in this cell editor.

The TextCellEditor implementation of this framework method ignores when the RETURN key is pressed since this is handled in handleDefaultSelection. An exception is made for Ctrl+Enter for multi-line texts, since a default selection event is not sent in this case.

Overrides:
keyReleaseOccured in class CellEditor
Parameters:
keyEvent - the key event

performCopy

public void performCopy()
The TextCellEditor implementation of this CellEditor method copies the current selection to the clipboard.

Overrides:
performCopy in class CellEditor

performCut

public void performCut()
The TextCellEditor implementation of this CellEditor method cuts the current selection to the clipboard.

Overrides:
performCut in class CellEditor

performDelete

public void performDelete()
The TextCellEditor implementation of this CellEditor method deletes the current selection or, if there is no selection, the character next character from the current position.

Overrides:
performDelete in class CellEditor

performPaste

public void performPaste()
The TextCellEditor implementation of this CellEditor method pastes the the clipboard contents over the current selection.

Overrides:
performPaste in class CellEditor

performSelectAll

public void performSelectAll()
The TextCellEditor implementation of this CellEditor method selects all of the current text.

Overrides:
performSelectAll in class CellEditor

dependsOnExternalFocusListener

protected boolean dependsOnExternalFocusListener()
This implementation of CellEditor.dependsOnExternalFocusListener() returns false if the current instance's class is TextCellEditor, and true otherwise. Subclasses that hook their own focus listener should override this method and return false. See also bug 58777.
