Eclipse Platform
Release 3.5

org.eclipse.update.core
Interface IInstallHandler

All Known Subinterfaces:
IInstallHandlerWithFilter
All Known Implementing Classes:
BaseInstallHandler

Deprecated. The org.eclipse.update component has been replaced by Equinox p2. This provisional API was never promoted to stable API, and may be removed from a future release of the platform.

public interface IInstallHandler

Custom install handler. Custom install handlers can optionally be associated with a feature. The actual install handler implementation can be physically delivered as part of the feature package, or can already be installed on the client machine and registered via the org.eclipse.update.core.installHandlers extension point. The install handler methods are called at predetermined point during update actions.

Clients may implement this interface. However, in most cases clients should directly subclass the provided implementation of this interface.

Note: This class/interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is being made available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken (repeatedly) as the API evolves.

2.0

Method Detail

initialize

void initialize(int type,
                
IFeature feature,
                
IInstallHandlerEntry entry,
                
InstallMonitor monitor)
                throws 
CoreException
Deprecated. 
Initialize the install handler. Install handlers are always constructed using the default constructor. The are initialized immediately following construction.

Parameters:
type - update action type
feature - the target of the action
entry - model entry that defines this handler
monitor - optional progress monitor, can be null
Throws:
CoreException
Since:
2.0

installInitiated

void installInitiated()
                      throws 
CoreException
Deprecated. 
Called at the start of the install action. At this point, no install processing has taken place.

Throws:
CoreException - terminates the action
Since:
2.0
See Also:
HANDLER_ACTION_INSTALL

pluginsDownloaded

void pluginsDownloaded(
IPluginEntry[] plugins)
                       throws 
CoreException
Deprecated. 
Called after files corresponding to plug-in entries have been downloaded, but before they are actully unpacked and installed.

Parameters:
plugins - downloaded plug-in entries. Note this may be a subset of the plug-ins actually references by the feature.
Throws:
CoreException - terminates the action

                             throws
