NewResourceAction

java.lang.Object
- javax.swing.AbstractAction
- - com.inductiveautomation.ignition.designer.tabbedworkspace.NewResourceAction

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.awt.event.ActionListener, java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable, java.util.EventListener, javax.swing.Action

Direct Known Subclasses:

ReportingResourceWorkspace.NewReportResourceAction
```
public abstract class NewResourceAction
extends javax.swing.AbstractAction
```
This action will pop up the CreateResourceDialog. There are two ways that implementations of this abstract class are meant to be used:
1. The legacy way: override createPrototype() and return your object. It will be serialized using Ignition's default XML serialization and the resulting bytes will be stored in the resources as data.bin
2. The Ignition 8.0 way: Override configureResource(ProjectResourceBuilder) and invoke methods on the resource builder. Don't worry about setting project name, resource path, or scope - these will be set automatically.
After the resource is created it will be opened in your workspace.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Concrete Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`void`	`actionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent event)`
`protected void`	`configureResource(ProjectResourceBuilder builder)`	The default implementation of this simply calls putData() with the prototype bytes in order to be backwards compatible with the legacy method of project resources only having one binary file in them.
`protected java.lang.Object`	`createPrototype()`
`protected byte[]`	`createPrototypeBytes()`
`protected ResourceFolderNode`	`getFolder()`	Provides an opportunity for subclasses to provide the parent folder lazily
`protected abstract java.lang.String`	`newResourceName()`
`protected void`	`onAfterResourceAdded(ProjectResource resource)`	Do more things after the resource is created here, if you want.

  The default implementation of this simply calls putData() with the prototype bytes in order to be backwards compatible with the legacy method of project resources only having one binary file in them.
  To make a more modern project resource with specific named files init, override this method and do not use createPrototype()
