Thanks for the detailed description. This is essentially bug 292206. I think that rather than coupling initialization to context ui startup it should be based on whether listeners are registered or not. We should consider changing the architecture when we generalize the monitor. Mylyn has been restructured, and our issue tracking has moved to GitHub [1]. We are closing ~14K Bugzilla issues to give the new team a fresh start. If you feel that this issue is still relevant, please create a new one on GitHub. [1] https://github.com/orgs/eclipse-mylyn |
Build Identifier: 20090920-1017 I would like to listen for several different kinds of InteractionEvents, especially edit ones. So I add a listener like so: MonitorUiPlugin.getDefault().addInteractionListener(new IInteractionEventListener() { public void interactionObserved(InteractionEvent event) { //I do something useful here } ... As expected, I get InteractionEvents for perspective changes. However, I do not get any SELECT or EDIT events as I would expect. Some notes: - if you add this: ContextCore.getContextManager().activateContext("xxx"), then the code above works as I expect. - this appears to be because the edit listeners (such as JavaEditingMonitor) don't get added until ContextUIPlugin's lazy start, which apparently doesn't get called unless a context is activated. -another way to test this is to run monitor.usage and notice that the generated monitor log does not contain any edit or select events, so long as you don't use contexts. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Make sure no contexts are active at startup time. 2. Register an InteractionEventListener 3. Observe that no edit or select events are
