Class ModestLaunchTab

java.lang.Object
  org.eclipse.debug.ui.AbstractLaunchConfigurationTab
      modesteditor.launch.ui.ModestLaunchTab

All Implemented Interfaces:

org.eclipse.debug.ui.ILaunchConfigurationTab

public class ModestLaunchTab
extends org.eclipse.debug.ui.AbstractLaunchConfigurationTab

The main tab in the Run dialog for MoDeST. Allows the user to enter the file to be compiled, and saves the information in a launch configuration.

Note that we never have to create our own launch configurations ("configs"). Eclipse handles the entire config life cycle -- creating, saving and reloading configs -- on its own. This class is only responsible for getting MoDeST-specific information from the user and entering it in the config Eclipse passes to it. Eclipse will save the config somewhere, and pass it to the MoDeST launch delegate whenever the user asks to run the config. To enable Eclipse to do all this, a launch configuration is very simple, essentially just a mapping from strings to a few simple types of data.
