As Edward says, there is no easy way to do this.
One idea would be to set the visibility to expert:

method.setVisibility(Settable.EXPERT);

You would do this in attributeChanged().
This would make method not visible the next time the
EditParameters dialog was rendered.  This is not really what
you want.

A couple of notes:

The parameter names should match the field names.
Otherwise, you will have problems if you use the actor
in actor-oriented classes. If you want the user to see
a different name, I suggest:

enableOperation = new Parameter(this, "enableOperation");
enableOperation.setDisplayName("enableCatalogUpdate");

Dear All,

I am a beginner trying to develop an actor. I apologize for asking a
silly question.

I need two parameter : the first is a Boolean and the second one a String :

public Parameter enableOperation;

public StringParameter method;

enableOperation = new Parameter(this, "enableCatalogUpdate");

enableOperation.setTypeEquals(BaseType.BOOLEAN);

enableOperation.setExpression("false");

method = new StringParameter(this, "populationRequest");

method.setTypeEquals(BaseType.STRING);

method.setExpression("create");

method.addChoice("create");

method.addChoice("update");

I should like that the second parameter be available only when the user
checks the first one. Is it possible to do that easily?

Many thanks for any help.

Jacqueline
