[protege-discussion] listening for UI events

[Michael Grove]

All,

Apologies for this simplistic question, especially if it has been asked 
before.  I am trying to write a tab widget plug-in for Protege and I would 
like to register to listen for a couple specific events.  First, I would 
like to be notified when my tab is selected.  Is the SelectionListener 
appropriate for this?  If so, where do I register to recieve this event?  If 
not, how do I get notified of the tab selection?

Second, is there any notion of the currently selected 
class/individual/property in Protege?  I would like to update the contents 
of my tab when a user selects a class, individual, or property in one of the 
other (default) tabs.  How would i get at the current selected resource?  Is 
there any way to register to listen to selection events so I can be notified 
when the listener selects something?  I suspect something like this must be 
built in as if you select something in the class tree in the OWLClasses tab 
and switch over to the Individuals tab, the selection you made in the 
OWLClasses class tree is reflected in the Individuals tab class tree.

Thanks for your help!

Cheers,

Michael
