Abstract base implementation for structure-oriented viewers (trees, lists, tables). Supports custom sorting, filtering, and rendering.
Any number of viewer filters can be added to this viewer (using addFilter
).
When the viewer receives an update, it asks each of its filters if it is out of date,
and refilters elements as required.

then the current mapping
from element to widgets is removed and the new mapping is added.

Installing only the new map is necessary in cases where only
the order of elements changes but not the set of elements.

The default implementation of this method tries first to
find the widget for the given element assuming that it is
the viewer's input; this is done by calling doFindInputItem
.
If it is not found there, it is looked up in the internal element
map provided that this feature has been enabled.

This framework method is called if a model change picked up by a viewer
results in an invalid selection. For instance if an element contained
in the selection has been removed from the viewer, the viewer is free
to either remove the element from the selection or to pick another element
as its new selection.
The default implementation of this method calls updateSelection
.
Subclasses may override it to implement a different strategy for picking
a new selection when the old selection becomes invalid.

implementation of this ContentViewer

ContentViewer
All subclasses must call this method when their control is first established.
The ContentViewer
implementation of this method hooks
dispose events for the given control.
Subclasses may override if they need to add other control hooks;
however, super.hookControl
must be invoked.

then labels for otherwise unaffected elements are updated as well.
Otherwise, it assumes labels for existing elements are unchanged,
and labels are only obtained as needed (for example, for new elements).
Calling refresh(true)
has the same effect as refresh()
.
Note that the implementation may still obtain labels for existing elements
even if updateLabels
is false. The intent is simply to allow
optimization where possible.

ContentViewer
ContentViewer
implementation of this Viewer
method invokes inputChanged
on the content provider and then the

hook method. This method fails if this viewer does
not have a content provider. Subclassers are advised to override
inputChanged
rather than this method, but may extend this method
if required.

StructuredViewer
implementation of this method does the following.
If the new selection differs from the current
selection the hook updateSelection
is called.
If setSelection
is called from
within preserveSelection
, the call to updateSelection
is delayed until the end of preserveSelection
.
Subclasses do not typically override this method, but implement setSelectionToWidget
instead.

element
- the elementpublic void update(Object[] elements, String[] properties)
This does not handle structural changes (e.g. addition or removal of elements),
and does not update any other related elements (e.g. child elements).
To handle structural changes, use the refresh
methods instead.
This should be called when an element has changed in the model, in order to have the viewer accurately reflect the model. This method only affects the viewer, not the model.
Specifying which properties are affected may allow the viewer to optimize the update.
For example, if the label provider is not affected by changes to any of these properties,
an update may not actually be required. Specifing properties
as
null
forces a full update of the given elements.
If the viewer has a sorter which is affected by a change to one of the properties, the elements' positions are updated to maintain the sort order.
If the viewer has a filter which is affected by a change to one of the properties, elements may appear or disappear if the change affects whether or not they are filtered out.
