Implement and declare the Action class

This section describes how to create an Action class with Eclipse.

• To create an Action class

1. In Eclipse, select New Java Class to create a class in order to implement the interface com.neotys.extensions.action.Action.
2. You can specify a custom name for the Java class, e.g. MyAction.
3. Click Finish to validate the new MyAction class.

   

4. Fill type, default parameters, icon and description fields.

   For methods getMinimumNeoLoadVersion and getMaximumNeoLoadVersion,

   replace the line return null;

   with return Optional.absent();

   

5. Reference the new action class in the file META-INF/services/com.neotys.extensions.action.Action:
   • Right-click the project and select New > Folder.

   

   • Enter META-INF in the Folder name field and click Finish.

   

6. Repeat the previous step to create a folder called services in the META-INF folder.
7. Right-click the folder services and use the New > File command to create a file named com.neotys.extensions.action.Action in the folder services.
8. Double-click the com.neotys.extensions.action.Action file to edit it adding the full qualified name of the Action class (i.e. package and class name).
