[Kotlin UI DSL] textfield binding not working Follow

Answered

Created December 03, 2021 08:31

Hi there,

I am currently implementing a SettingsEditor for a run configuration of one of my plugins. For this I want to use the Kotlin UI DSL.

The problem I have is that the text field binding seems to not work; the value entered is not applied. Even when debugging I see no change in the bound property.

My prototype code in the SettingsEditor looks like the following:

private var vamosPath = ""

override fun createEditor(): JComponent {
    return panel {
        row {
            textField(::vamosPath)
        }
    }
}

Is there anything obvious that I overlooked?

Thanks in advance,
Marco

Here is the VamosSettingsEditor code:

class VamosSettingsEditor : SettingsEditor<VamosRunConfiguration>() {

    var vamosPath = ""

    override fun createEditor(): JComponent {
        return panel {
            row {
                textField(::vamosPath)
            }
        }
    }

    override fun resetEditorFrom(config: VamosRunConfiguration) {
        println("VamosSettingsEditor::resetEditorFrom, vamosPath: ${config.options.vamosPath}")
        config.options.vamosPath?.let { println("vamosPath $vamosPath -> cfg $it"); vamosPath = it }
    }

    override fun applyEditorTo(config: VamosRunConfiguration) {
        println("VamosSettingsEditor::applyEditorTo, vamosPath: $vamosPath, config vamosPath: ${config.options.vamosPath}")
        config.options.vamosPath = vamosPath
    }
}

And this is the corresponding options type (referenced above via config.options):

package com.github.mrolappe.intellij.runconfiguration.vamos

import com.intellij.execution.configurations.ModuleBasedConfigurationOptions

class VamosRunConfigurationOptions : ModuleBasedConfigurationOptions() {
    var vamosPath by string()
}
