    <p>How Strange.</p> <p>Okay, when I tried to use the auto-correct "include org.eclipse.core.databinding_1.3..." nothing happened. I ass-u-me'd that it was correctly included as a plugin dependency and didn't fix the error.</p> <p>During this time, that plugin's jar appeared in my plugin project's "Plug-in Dependencies" folder, and I was able to view its source. One would think at that point that the plugin was correctly included in the plugin.xml</p> <p>One would be wrong.</p> <p>I manually added ...core.databinding_1.3... to my plugin dependencies and the errors Went Away.</p> <p>So it seems this is a bug in the autocorrect rather than in the API restriction code.</p> <p>AH! I had org.eclipse.core.databinding in my Imported Packages list. That must have thrown things off.</p> <p>So now you know. And knowing's have the battle. GO CODE!</p> <hr> <p>And speaking of code. Here's what I'm doing (more or less):</p> <pre><code>enum MapValueDirection { VALUE_TO_KEY, KEY_TO_VALUE }; private class MappingConverter extends Converter { Map&lt;String, String&gt; map = null; public MappingConverter( Map&lt;String, String&gt; map_, MapValueDirection dir) { super(String.class, String.class); if (dir == MapValueDirection.VALUE_TO_KEY) { map = reverseMap(map_); } else { map = map_; } } private Map&lt;String, String&gt; reverseMap(Map&lt;String, String&gt; map_) { Map&lt;String, String&gt; reversedMap = new TreeMap&lt;String, String&gt;(); Set&lt;Entry&lt;String, String&gt;&gt; entries = map_.entrySet(); for (Entry&lt;String, String&gt; curEnt : entries) { reversedMap.put(curEnt.getValue(), curEnt.getKey()); } return reversedMap; } /* (non-Javadoc) * @see org.eclipse.core.databinding.conversion.IConverter#convert(java.lang.Object) */ public Object convert(Object fromObject) { if (map != null &amp;&amp; fromObject != null &amp;&amp; String.class.equals(fromObject.getClass())) { Object newVal = map.get(fromObject); if (newVal == null) { newVal = fromObject; } return newVal; } return fromObject; } } /** * And this is were the actual work gets done. */ public void bindBean(Object bean, PropertyDescriptor prop) { Control curControl = getControl(prop.getPropertyType()); IObservableValue uiElement = getObserver(prop, curControl); IOvservableValue modelElement = BeanObservables.observValue(bean, prop.getName()); // "display" = key, "storage" = value Map&lt;String, String&gt; profileFlds = getProfileFields(); UpdateValueStrategy toStorage = new UpdateValueStrategy(); toStorage.setConverter( new MappingConverter( profileFlds, MapValueDirection.KEY_TO_VALUE)); UpdateValueStrategy toDisplay = new UpdateValueStrategy(); toDisplay .setConverter( new MappingConverter( profileFlds, MapValueDirection.VALUE_TO_KEY)); m_bindingContext.bindValue( uiElement, modelElement, toDisplay , toStorage); } </code></pre> <p>My actual code is a bit more complex than that, but you get the idea. I suspect it's not terribly efficient, but it works well within the whole data binding framework, conceptually speaking (based on my admittedly limited experience).</p> <p>It should be fairly trivial to make a Generic version of MappingConverter, but I'll leave that as an Exercise For the Reader.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
