Hi Carsten,
These are the reasons I could find (I'm not very sure they are right :-(
), I will use "my terms", not the technical ones [as I'm not sure how it
works "internally"], sure a Sun engineer will laugh at them)
Hi Ariel,
I don't laugh because your following explanation looks very good.
well... now I can feel relax!
I thought I was missing something and making things more complicated
than they actually are, but seems that a context menu interceptor for
the real-world is not a simple thing!
The
only thing which is not correct that the "Layoutmanager" is an active
part in this scenario. The layout manager is just an ordinary service
which is also a FrameActionListener. It has to destroy the user
interface elements whenever a FrameAction.COMPONENT_DETACHING event is
received. The reason is that the layout manager cannot show any user
interface element without context information.
The Dev's Guide example is OK and works fine, but intercepting a context
menu IN THE REAL WORLD is much complicated.
A complete, up-to-date example from the Framework team developers will
help us a lot!
You're right that a complete context menu interceptor needs much more
effort than the example from the Developer's Guide. We will try to
create a more sophisticated example that can be used in the "REAL
WORLD". I don't want to extend the example Developer's Guide as a more
complex example wouldn't help people to understand the basics. Sure this
example shall be part of the SDK.
this will help a lot, not only for a context menu interceptor: Oliver is
having the same problem (XController disposed) with a
com.sun.star.awt.XKeyHandler.
I finished my context menu interceptor, and works ... but I do not dare
to share the sources because there is a lot of crap :-[ , and I tend to
think that I've done some "magic" to make it work...
Regards
Ariel.
