Parameters:

dbObjectType - the type of object

Returns:

whether the 'New' menu item should be added

See Also:

DBObject.getType()

Lists all the types that create/edit is supported for.

Returns:

an array of the types edit dialogs are available for.

See Also:

DBObject.getType()

getCreateLabel

java.lang.String getCreateLabel(java.lang.String dbObjectType)

Retrieves the menu label for creating new objects of the specified type.

launchDialog

void launchDialog(DBEditorConfig config)

Launches a create or edit dialog appropriate to the given DBEditorConfig. To be notified of the completion of the dialog, add a listener to the config.

Parameters:

config - the configuration for launching the dialog

createDBObject

@Deprecated
SchemaObject createDBObject(Schema schema,
                                       DBObjectProvider pro,

Creates a new database object of a specific type in the given schema and provider.

Parameters:

schema - The schema to create the object in

pro - The DBObjectProvider instance to create the object in

dbObjectType - The type of database object to create

Returns:

the new object if it was successfully created

See Also:

DBObjectProvider, DBObject.getType()

createDBObject

@Deprecated
SchemaObject createDBObject(DBObjectTypeNode node)

Deprecated. use launchDialog(DBEditorConfig)

Creates a new database object. The type, schema and provider are all taken from the given node.

Parameters:

node - the node describing the schema, type and provider

Returns:

the new object if it was successfully created

createDBObject

@Deprecated
DBObject createDBObject(Schema schema,
                                   DBObjectProvider pro,
                                   java.lang.String dbObjectType,
                                   DBObject parent,
                                   boolean commitToProvider)

Deprecated. use launchDialog(DBEditorConfig)

Creates a new database object of a specific type in the given schema and provider using the given parent object.

Parameters:

schema - The schema to create the object in

pro - The DBObjectProvider instance to create the object in

dbObjectType - The type of database object to create

parent - the owning object of the object to be created (e.g. Table for a new Index)

commitToProvider - whether the dialog should commit the change back to the DBObjectProvider as well as the parent object. This allows a dialog to be fired from within another editor context (e.g. the modeler) and the edit absorbed into the edit of the parent (e.g. editing a Table, create a new Index as part of the edit and commit the whole lot together later).

Returns:

the new object if it was successfully created
