At the moment the StatusMeterRidget doesn't work with RoR, because it on the fly draws an image using the graphics context, which isn't supported by RAP. I tried different approaches to get around these limitations, but could't find a way without breaking our API and make the StatusMeter work as a ridget and as an image for the TableColumnFormatter. To make the ridget work we need the following API-changes in RAP: - Image has to implement Drawable - Image needs the constructor (Device device, int width. int height) - The gc has to be extended to provide drawing capabilities for images instead of just canvas. Additional changes to Riena: - StatusMeterWidget should inherit from canvas instead of composite, so we can use a PaintListener
The ridget still doesn't work on RAP, but at least it compiles. Therefore I added 2 new methods to the SWTFacade. At the moment the StatusWidget is displayed as a black bar when running on RAP.
Is it possible to implement the StatusMeter as a Canvas and draw on it (instead of using images) ? Drawing on images is most likely not going to be available in RAP.
The StatusMeterBuilder creates an image so it can be used as a Widget by drawing the image on it and also as a ColumnFormatter. Have a look at an example in the SWT ExampleClient TableSubModuleController. At the moment I can't think of a different solution to cover both requirements. Maybe if we would support TableCellEditors, we could just draw on a Canvas and then use that in an TableColumn as well.
