  org.eclipse.jdt.ui.wizards.BuildPathDialogAccess

public final class BuildPathDialogAccess

extends Object

Class that gives access to dialogs used by the Java build path page to configure classpath entries and properties of classpath entries. Static methods are provided to show dialogs for:

• configuration of source attachments
• configuration of Javadoc locations
• configuration and selection of classpath variable entries
• configuration and selection of classpath container entries
• configuration and selection of JAR and external JAR entries
• selection of class and source folders

This class is not intended to be instantiated or subclassed by clients.

Since:

3.0

Method Detail

configureSourceAttachment

public static IClasspathEntry configureSourceAttachment(Shell shell,
                                                        IClasspathEntry initialEntry)

Shows the UI for configuring source attachments. null is returned if the user cancels the dialog. The dialog does not apply any changes.

Parameters:

shell - The parent shell for the dialog

initialEntry - The entry to edit. The kind of the classpath entry must be either IClasspathEntry.CPE_LIBRARY or IClasspathEntry.CPE_VARIABLE.

Returns:

Returns the resulting classpath entry containing a potentially modified source attachment path and source attachment root. The resulting entry can be used to replace the original entry on the classpath. Note that the dialog does not make any changes on the passed entry nor on the classpath that contains it.

configureJavadocLocation

public static URL[] configureJavadocLocation(Shell shell,

Shows the UI for configuring a javadoc location. null is returned if the user cancels the dialog. If OK is pressed, an array of length 1 containing the configured URL is returned. Note that the configured URL can be null when the user wishes to have no URL location specified. The dialog does not apply any changes. Use JavaUI to access and configure Javadoc locations.

Parameters:

shell - The parent shell for the dialog.

libraryName - Name of of the library to which configured javadoc location belongs.
