Eclipse RCP View Communication ,where one view contains nattable and another views contains jface controls like button, dropdown.
Currently for example there is 3 view/Editor as shown below
View1 - contains employee details which is a Nattable and
it's cell contains data like String, Long, boolean, date value.
each row represent one data,and other views are corresponding data of
selected row
View2 - shows Address which is corresponding to the selected row in the View 1,
User can modify data of view2.
View3 - shows department details of employe, which can also be modified
So all 3 views present data of one model say Employee
Employee
|_Name
|_EmpId
|_Married
|_DOJ
|_Address
|_Type
|_City Name
|_State
|_PinCode
|_Department Details
|_Department
|_Project
|_Manager
Problem:
I want to know what is best way of communcation between views1 and other view such that
On selection of row in view1 then other two view should be update correspondingly;
If any data changes in view2/view3 then view 1 should get notification for data change in other view
when condition 2 occurs then I want to show dirty row in view1.
The typical approach for inter view communication in an E4 application related to your described scenario is to use the ESelectionService to trigger handling of a selection for opening another view, and to communicate back via the Eclipse 4 event system.
For scenario one to open a view based on the selection in a NatTable you could use the E4SelectionListener in the NatTable Eclipse 4 Extension Feature. It is a ILayerListener that forwards the selection to the ESelectionService. An example can be found in the NatTable examples.
To inform view 1 about changes in another view, I would suggest to use the IEventBroker to send an event from view2/view3 and react on the event in view1. This way the views are decoupled as much as possible. Eclipse 4 event system is a good starting point for learning about the event system.

There are many outline items (menus) and many views and forms in the current running system.
The view is actually the same content, but the conditions are different.
Is there a way to have only one view and set conditions in the outer frame to display the content of the view?
for example:
There are 3 outer frame items (menu), click any outer frame item, a view will be displayed.
Menu 1 will open the view sorted by name
Menu 2 will open the view sorted by serial number
Menu 3 will open the view sorted by date
The views are all the same content, but different sorting methods are set to display.
As in the example, because there are 3 sorting methods, there are 3 views.
Is there a way to become only one view?
You can't control sorting. If you look at the NotesUIView class, you'll see there are no methods available for that. There's not much available there at all.
The only way you can control a view from code outside the view is by embedding it in a form, subform, or page, and using the Show Single Category feature.
I want to display my .NET Core web page as per the below image.
For the left pane, I am using a partial view whereas I'm rendering the right pane with view components.
I call different API's to retrieve data from the database in order to display data in both panes.
I want to synchronize the left pane record count with right pane view component data.
Is their any pattern/combination of view components or partial views to achieve my requirements?
I want to synchronize left pane record count with right pane view components data. Is their any pattern/combination of view-components or partial views to synchronize my requirement.
You can put rows of each view component into specific "container" with specific css class, such as "vc1-row", "vc2-row" etc.
On client side, you can traverse rows of view component(s) and calculate count of rows of each view component after DOM is ready, and update/repopulate left panel record count via JavaScript/jQuery code.
Besides, if you'd like to implement something like portal/dashboard, which could retrieve data from back-end service and push real-time data to clients and update clients UI with new data, you can try to use SignalR.
Sometimes in Outlook I want to be able to see the last few emails I received or sent to a client.
As there can be several individual email addresses per client, the only way to reliably identify emails as belonging to a client is to look at the domain part of the email address, eg the company in person#company.com
How can I add this as a sortable column in the main views (Inbox, Sent Items, etc)?
Almost found what I want from here (I've improved on the formula).
Add a new column to a view from the Show Columns dialog, click New Column and enter a new formula based column:
IIf(InStr([SearchFromEmail], "#") = 0, "", Mid([SearchFromEmail], InStr([SearchFromEmail], "#") + 1))

Be aware, the ItemAdd event of the Items class is not fired when multiple items are added to the folder at the same time.
You can handle the NewMailEx event of the Application class which is fires when a new message arrives in the Inbox and before client rule processing occurs. You can use the Entry ID returned in the EntryIDCollection array to call the NameSpace.GetItemFromID method and process the item.
In the event handler you can add a user property which can be user in the UI for sorting items (MailItem.UserProperties.Add). The CurrentView property of the Folder class returns a View object representing the current view.
The View object allows you to create customizable views that allow you to better sort, group and ultimately view data of all different types. There are a variety of different view types that provide the flexibility needed to create and maintain your important data.
- The table view type (olTableView) allows you to view data in a simple field-based table.
- The Calendar view type (olCalendarView) allows you to view data in a calendar format.
- The card view type (olCardView) allows you to view data in a series of cards. Each card displays the information contained by the item and can be sorted.
- The icon view type (olIconView) allows you to view data as icons, similar to a Windows folder or explorer.
- The timeline view type (olTimelineView) allows you to view data as it is received in a customizable linear time line.
Views are defined and customized using the View object's XML property. The XML property allows you to create and set a customized XML schema that defines the various features of a view.
Not out of the box. You can process all your existing emails (and automatically process all new items using MAPIFolder.Items.ItemAdd event on the folders that you want to process) to set a user property (MailItem.UserProperties.Add) to the value extracted by your code. If you modify the folder views to include your property, you will be able to see it.
I have created 2 content types; Episode which has actual episode information and Channel which has a channel description which includes a few fields specific to the channel plus an Entity Reference to Episodes.
While entering data, you can select "Add new episode" and are able to add as many episodes as you wish. The data is all visible and correct in View Content.
I need now to create a view which looks something like this:
Channel Name
Channel Info
Episodes:
Ep 1
Ep 1 content
Ep 2
Ep 2 content
etc.
I can create a view of Channels or a view of Episodes, just don't know how to integrate the one into the other.
Having the darndest time figuring out what I am doing wrong. perhaps it's as much about terminology as anything else as I come from a different CMS background. TIA
This can be achieved using the display suite module and linking the entities using a custom view mode, and then rendering a rendered entity in your view.
So Install the Display Suite Module.
Setup a custom View Mode, and enable the custom view in the "Parent" content type, and select single column layout.
Add the Entity Reference Field to your columns, and select rendered entity.
Then Create a new View, referencing the "Parent" Content Type, and the views output, select rendered entity and choose the custom view mode you created.
I was over-thinking the solution. In the Manage Display for the Channel, set Episodes to display as Rendered Entity. From that point, I was able to then modify the Manage Display for the Episode content type. This was all that was necessary.
I've recently started using Expression Sketchflow to prototype some user interface designs. I currently have a master datagrid at the top of the page, which I would like to allow the user when selecting a particular grid row to see a sub-datagrid below be populated with specific data relevant to that specific row of master data.
Could anyone shed some light on the subject!?
Help greatly appreciated.
I figured out how to do this by reading this article:
Expression Blend 3 – secrets of working with data.
Here's the basic steps (you already did a couple it sounds like)
Create your sample data set
Under the Data tab select the List Mode and drag your collection onto the screen, a list view of your data will be created (Master datagrid)
Now, select the Details Mode and drag and drop your collection onto the screen where you want the details to be displayed. (sub datagrid)
Tweak the fields displayed by dragging properties into the respective containers or modifying the XAML / Bindings list
If you have a child collection in your data, you may have to jump through a few more hoops.
