Auxiliary libraries for Eclipse, JUnit and Java development in general. It includes the FlatScrollBar and more...
- Released components are available from this p2 software repository: http://fappel.github.io/xiliary
- Builds from development branch are also available: http://fappel.github.io/xiliary/development
The folder https://github.com/fappel/xiliary/tree/master/com.codeaffine.xiliary.releng contains the Xiliary.setup and XiliaryIDE.setup files. The latter is an Oomph (https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/tools.oomph) product setup model and the first a project setup model. Use the Oomph installer in advanced mode (http://eclipsesource.com/blogs/tutorials/oomph-basic-tutorial/) and refer to the files on GitHub in raw mode. This should help to setup a basic development environment and workspace in no time. However, as this is the first try on Oomph there might be some unknown depths... please report any issues you're running into to help to improve this mechanism. See also https://github.com/fappel/xiliary/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md for more information on how to contribute.
Drop in replacement for all your Eclipse 4.4 based RCP apps table, tree, and styled text scrollbars as easy as this in two tiny steps:
- add bundles com.codeaffine.eclipse.swt.jar and com.codeaffine.eclipse.ui.swt.theme.jar to your target platform and to your products feature.xml
- merge this snippet with your RCP apps CSS:
Tree {
flat-scroll-bar: true;
flat-scroll-bar-background : #ababab;
flat-scroll-bar-thumb: #cdcdcd;
flat-scroll-bar-page-increment: #f8f8f8;
flat-scroll-bar-thumb-top-level: #454545;
flat-scroll-bar-page-increment-top-level: #f8f8f8;
flat-scroll-bar-increment-length: 7;
adapter-demeanor: expand-on-mouse-over; /* fixed-width */
}
Table {
flat-scroll-bar: true;
flat-scroll-bar-background : #ababab;
flat-scroll-bar-thumb: #cdcdcd;
flat-scroll-bar-page-increment: #f8f8f8;
flat-scroll-bar-thumb-top-level: #454545;
flat-scroll-bar-page-increment-top-level: #f8f8f8;
flat-scroll-bar-increment-length: 7;
adapter-demeanor: expand-on-mouse-over; /* fixed-width */
}
StyledText {
flat-scroll-bar: true;
flat-scroll-bar-thumb: #ababab;
flat-scroll-bar-page-increment: #cdcdcd;
adapter-background-top-level: #f8f8f8;
flat-scroll-bar-thumb-top-level: #454545;
flat-scroll-bar-page-increment-top-level: #f8f8f8;
flat-scroll-bar-increment-length: 7;
adapter-demeanor: expand-on-mouse-over; /* fixed-width */
}
Note: In case you want to configure background-color style for your trees, tables, or styled texts that differs to the one that is defined for the composite components when using FlatScrollBar, you'll have to do this with an appropriate TreeAdapter, TreeTable, or StyledTextAdapter configuration entry in your css as shown below (see also #94):
Composite * {
background-color: red;
}
Tree {
flat-scroll-bar: true;
}
TreeAdapter {
background-color: blue;
}
