The following pull request addresses Issue #1858 - [manifest editor] Show uses of exported packages in a tree.
Changes:
Imported the tree viewer and tree content provider needed to start adding the tree to the ExportPackageVisibility.java file since this file along with the ExportPackageSection.java contains the code for displaying the export packages.
Worked on replacing some of the "table" functions with tree functions.
Added code that starts to build the tree for displaying export packages. I had technical difficulties committing this to this branch but will be add it to the code file
**treeViewer = new TreeViewer(parent);
treeViewer.setContentProvider(new TreeContentProvider());
treeViewer.setLabelProvider(new TreeContentLabelProvider());
**I added this code where the main table display is coded in the ExportPackageVisibility.java file. I plan on adding more code to create the overall size of the tree later on. **
Questions:
Is there a specific tree display needed for this issue to show each "child of the package" or "used packages" as mentioned in the issue's description? For instance, creating a tree to display the parent package and a list of the child packages underneath it with checkboxes to see which packages are currently used:
I noticed that there is a file called "TreeSection.java" is it best practice to use this file and its code to help build the tree or is it specifically used for another feature in the Eclipse PDE project?
