Hi, it's me again, I before you start playing with the code, I better give you some advice, so you don't run into the same frustrating surprises on your first attempts.
My project layout: Three SWT plugin projects take part in this test example: MockFactory project: This is the project, where the NativeDialogFactory and the DummyInputValidator reside. Application project: The application I create (i.e. what the user will get) Test Project: the SWTBot test project I exported the MockFactory project as a plugin. I first tried to import the MockFactory project as a plugin into the Application project. This however broke my PDE build (it did build, but the application failed to start). So instead, I took plugin jar-file and placed it into the application project. The NativeDialogFactory is desinged as singleton with a "global variable", the operation mode (remember, in test mode you set it to TESTING). This works only of course, when there is really only one NativeDialogFactory around. The application project must export the mockfactory package to make the NativeDialogFactory visible from the Test project. Don't include the MockFactory jar directly into your Test project, too. In this case, your test code will set the NativeDialogFactory to test mode - but there seem to be two NativeDialogFactories: One lives in the jar within the Application project, the other lives in the jar within the Test project. When the code in each project calls it, its Classloader will resolve to its own jar. Hope this posting wasn't too confusing, Jan Petranek _______________________________________________ swtbot-dev mailing list swtbot-dev@eclipse.org https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/swtbot-dev
