Views Without Multi Widget

Replace the QmitkFunctionality inheritance of your View class with QmitkAbstractView and remove any QmitkStdMultiWidget.h include directives.

#!highlight cpp
//#include <QmitkStdMultiWidget.h> <-- Remove this include
//#include <QmitkFunctionality.h> <-- Remove this include
#include <QmitkAbstractView.h>

//class MyView : public QmitkFunctionality {...};
class MyView : public QmitkAbstractView {...};

You must implement the method SetFocus(). Previously, an empty default implementation was provided by QmitkFunctionality which generally is not a good default.

#!highlight cpp
void SetFocus()
{
  m_Controls->someWidget->setFocus();
}

The following table maps the deprecated QmitkFunctionality API to the new API offered by QmitkAbstractView or related interfaces.

QmitkFunctionality	QmitkAbstractView
void OnSelectionChanged(std::vector<mitk::DataNode*>)	void OnSelectionChanged(berry::IWorkbenchPart::Pointer, const QList<mitk::DataNode::Pointer>&)
mitk::DataStorage::Pointer GetDefaultDataStorage()	mitk::DataStorage::Pointer GetDataStorage()
bool IsActivated()	x (remeber the state yourself by implementing the mitk::ILifecycleAwarePart interface)
QmitkStdMultiWidget* GetActiveStdMultiWidget(bool reCreateWidget = true)	mitk::IRenderWindowPart* GetRenderWindowPart(IRenderWindowPartStrategies)
m_Parent	x (remember the parent yourself in CreateQtPartControl(QWidget*) )
bool IsExclusiveFunctionality()	x (implement the mitk::IZombieViewPart interface to indicate special behavior)

QmitkFunctionality	mitk::IRenderWindowPartListener
void StdMultiWidgetAvailable(QmitkStdMultiWidget&)	void RenderWindowPartActivated(mitk::IRenderWindowPart*)

QmitkFunctionality

mitk::ILifecycleAwarePart

QmitkFunctionality	mitk::IZombieViewPart
void Deactivated()	void ActivatedZombieView(berry::IWorkbenchPartReference::Pointer)

Calls to the global mitk::RenderingManager instance should be replaced by calls to the mitk::IRenderingManager instance returned by the mitk::IRenderWindowPart. Rendering update requests should be done by calling QmitkAbstractView::RequestRenderWindowUpdate.

#!highlight cpp
// Get a mitk::IRenderingManager instance
mitk::IRenderingManager* rendering manager =
  this->GetRenderWindowPart()->GetRenderingManager();

// Request an update of the currently active render windows
this->RequestRenderWindowUpdate();
