public interface ISecondarySaveableSource
Interface for parts providing an adapter to
ISaveablePart
objects
created or managed originally by other parts.
In case the same ISaveablePart
object is created originally by a
"primary" part and shown or edited by multiple parts, the "primary" part
might want be the only UI element showing the "dirty" state in the UI.
This interface allows "primary" parts define the default behavior for all "secondary" parts; and allows "secondary" parts to override this and decide how they should behave and how they should be represented in the UI.
- Parts implementing this interface directly are considered to be "secondary" parts and define only their own behavior.
- Parts can also provide an adapter to this interface via
IAdaptable.getAdapter(Class)
. If such part is not implementing this interface directly, it can considered as primary "source" part, and can define a default behavior for all secondary parts.
