Method Detail

adjustForNumColumns

protected void adjustForNumColumns(int numColumns)
Description copied from class: FieldEditor
Adjusts the horizontal span of this field editor's basic controls.

Subclasses must implement this method to adjust the horizontal span of controls so they appear correct in the given number of columns.

The number of columns will always be equal to or greater than the value returned by this editor's getNumberOfControls method.

Specified by:
adjustForNumColumns in class FieldEditor
Parameters:
numColumns - the number of columns

doFillIntoGrid

protected void doFillIntoGrid(
Composite parent,
                              int numColumns)
Description copied from class: FieldEditor
Fills this field editor's basic controls into the given parent.

Subclasses must implement this method to create the controls for this field editor.

Note this method may be called by the constructor, so it must not access fields on the receiver object because they will not be fully initialized.

Specified by:
doFillIntoGrid in class FieldEditor
Parameters:
parent - the composite used as a parent for the basic controls; the parent's layout must be a GridLayout
numColumns - the number of columns

doLoad

protected void doLoad()
Description copied from class: FieldEditor
Initializes this field editor with the preference value from the preference store.

Subclasses must implement this method to properly initialize the field editor.

Specified by:

protected abstract 
String getStoredValue()
Returns the value that is currently stored for the encoding.

Returns:
the currently stored encoding

doLoadDefault

protected void doLoadDefault()
Description copied from class: FieldEditor
Initializes this field editor with the default preference value from the preference store.
