public abstract class SubscriberParticipant
extends AbstractSynchronizeParticipant
implements IPropertyChangeListener

A synchronize participant that displays synchronization information for local resources that are managed via a Subscriber. It maintains a dynamic collection of all out-of-sync resources by listening to workspace resource changes and remote changes thus creating a live view of changes in the workspace.

The subscriber can be configured to be synchronized in the background based on a schedule. This effectively refreshes the subscriber and updates the dynamic sync set.

Subclasses will typically want to override the following methods:

This class is intended to be subclassed.

Since:
3.0

                          String longTaskName,
                          IWorkbenchSite site)
Refresh a participant in the background the result of the refresh are shown in the progress view. Refreshing can also be considered synchronizing, or refreshing the synchronization state. Basically this is a long running operation that will update the participants sync info sets with new changes detected on the server. Either or both of the shortTaskName and longTaskName can be null in which case, the default values for these are returned by the methods getShortTaskName() and getLongTaskName(IResource[]) will be used.

Parameters:
resources - the resources to be refreshed.
shortTaskName - the taskName of the background job that will run the synchronize or null if the default job name is desired.
longTaskName - the taskName of the progress monitor running the synchronize or null if the default job name is desired.
site - the workbench site the synchronize is running from. This can be used to notify the site that a job is running.

Returns:
the short task name to show in the status line.

getLongTaskName

protected String getLongTaskName()
Deprecated. use getLongTaskName(IResource[]) instead

Returns the long task name to describe the behavior of the refresh operation to the user. This is typically shown in the status line when this subscriber is refreshed in the background.

Returns:
the long task name

validateConfiguration

protected void validateConfiguration(ISynchronizePageConfiguration configuration)
This method is invoked before the given configuration is used to create the page (see createPage(ISynchronizePageConfiguration)). The configuration would have been initialized by initializeConfiguration(ISynchronizePageConfiguration) but may have also been tailored further. This method gives the participant a chance to validate those changes before the page is created.

Parameters:
configuration - the page configuration that is about to be used to create a page.

setSubscriber

protected void setSubscriber(Subscriber subscriber)
Subclasses must call this method to initialize the participant. Typically this method is called in init(String, IMemento). This method will initialize the sync info collector.

Parameters:
subscriber - the subscriber to associate with this participant.

setSyncInfoFilter

protected void setSyncInfoFilter(SyncInfoFilter filter)
Provide a filter that is used to filter the contents of the sync info set for the participant. Normally, all out-of-sync resources from the subscriber will be included in the participant's set. However, a filter can be used to exclude some of these out-of-sync resources, if desired.

Subclasses can invoke this method any time after setSubscriber has been invoked.

Parameters:
filter - a sync info filter

getScope

public ISynchronizeScope getScope()
Return the scope that defines the resources displayed by this participant.

Returns:
Returns the scope.
