Analysis

Overview

This is a layout implementation made using an alternative docking library(different from MyDoggy). It is responsible for visualizing the model defined in BASE_LAYOUT.

Task requirements

• Search for an alternative docking library.(one is VLDocking)
• Make a Sophie module
• It should provide an extension to the corresponding extension point of BASE_LAYOUT lib
• It should be able to display the things described in BASE_LAYOUT_R0
• The two layout implementations should be fully replaceable

Task result

The result of this task is source code.

Implementation idea

• Make a class extending SophieModule
• Use available VLDocking code.

How to demo

• Run Sophie 2.0 and show the layout

Design

• Create org.sophie2.layout.vldocking module

The new module should depend on org.sophie2.base and org.sophie2.base.layout. It should include all classes related to the concrete VlDocking layout implementation

• Move all existing classes from the messy module which are related to the VlDocking layout implementation in the new module.
  • DockableDesktopScroll
  • DockableLayoutElement

• Create class LayoutVlDockingModule which extends SophieModule and is responsible for the main window to be shown by VlDocking library.

• Create class VlEngine which implements LayoutEngine interface (the extension point interface) and provides implementation for the two methods:
  • show(MainWindow mainWindow)
  • hide(MainWindow mainWindow)

• Create class VlMainWindow which has property mainWindow() for the structure representation of the main window and also properties for every element of this structure.

• Create VlFlap class which should extend DockableLayoutElement and override the attach(DockingDesktop desk),detach(DockingDesktop desk),getDesk() and getDockable() methods. It should have the properties:
  • flap() used for the Flap structure
  • tabViews() used for the list of all tab views for this flap
  • desk() used for the docking desktop where the flap is attached to. If you call set it will attach/detach.
  • compoundDockable() is the component where the tab views will be attached to.

• Create VlTab class which should extend DockableLayoutElement and override the attach(DockingDesktop desk),detach(DockingDesktop desk),getDesk(), getDockable() and dispose() methods. It should have the properties:
  • tab() used for the Tab structure
  • parent() referring to the VlFlap which is parent of the VlTab
  • paletteViews() used for the list of all palettes in the tab.
  • compoundDockable() is the component where the palette views will be attached to.

• Create VlPalette class which should extend DockableLayoutElement and override the attach(DockingDesktop desk),detach(DockingDesktop desk),getDesk() and getDockable() methods. It should have the properties:
  • palette() used for the Palette structure (the model)
  • dockable() is for the dockable component of the palette which will be attached to the compound dockable of the tab.

• The demo test org.sophie2.layout.vldocking.VlDockingDemo.java tests creation, updating, showing and hiding of VlDockingMainWindow components.

Implementation

• There is a module org.sophie2.layout.vldocking where everything connected with the VlDocking library is.
• Modifications - 429, 431 and 432
