Registering of a new ContextGlobalProvider implementation

Hi Tim,

I tried to follow your tutorial in order to change the selection model. As it is not currently online I used this version: https://web.archive.org/web/20101023185130/http://weblogs.java.net/blog/2007/01/23/how-replace-selection-model-netbeans-platform<https://web.archive.org/web/20101023185130/http:/weblogs.java.net/blog/2007/01/23/how-replace-selection-model-netbeans-platform>

It looks like the service isn’t correctly registered, here is what I did:

First I have the custom implementation of the ContextGlobalProvider:

package com.bracco.qihc.selectionModel;

import com.bracco.qihc.combinedResult.CombinedResultTopComponent;
import org.openide.util.ContextGlobalProvider;
import org.openide.util.Lookup;
import org.openide.util.lookup.AbstractLookup;
import org.openide.util.lookup.InstanceContent;

public final class QihcContextProvider implements ContextGlobalProvider {

    private final InstanceContent ic = new InstanceContent();
    private final Lookup lkp = new AbstractLookup(ic);

    public Lookup getLookup() {
        return lkp;
    }

    @Override
    public Lookup createGlobalContext() {
        return lkp;
    }

    public void setCombinedResultTopComponent (CombinedResultTopComponent combinedResultTopComponent) {
        CombinedResultTopComponent old = lkp.lookup(CombinedResultTopComponent.class);
        if (combinedResultTopComponent != null) {
            if (old != null) {
                ic.remove(old);
            }
            ic.add(combinedResultTopComponent);
        }
    }
}


And then I have the service provider configuration file called org.openide.util.ContextGlobalProvider and placed at the root of the src folder (<default package>), it contains this:

#-org.netbeans.modules.openide.windows.GlobalActionContextImpl
com.bracco.qihc.selectionModel.QihcContextProvider

Do you see something wrong?

Gilles
