I am looking for a solution of "link with editor" but for FormEditor instead of ViewPart as described in http://murygin.wordpress.com/2012/06/13/link-eclipse-view-to-editor/
I try to do similar. But the "link with editor" does not fire any action.
Thanks for help!
I found out that I could use "Navigator Link Helper":
http://help.eclipse.org/juno/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.isv%2Freference%2Fextension-points%2Forg_eclipse_ui_navigator_linkHelper.html
Hier is my code in plugin.xml:
<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.navigator.viewer">
...
<viewerContentBinding ...>
<includes>
<contentExtension pattern="my.ui.navigator.linkHelper.myExplorer"/>
</includes>
</viewerContentBinding>
...
</extension>
<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.navigator.linkHelper">
<linkHelper
class="my.ui.navigator.MyExplorerLinkHelper"
id="my.ui.navigator.linkHelper.myExplorer">
<selectionEnablement>
<or>
<adapt type="org.eclipse.core.resources.IProject"/>
<instanceof value="org.eclipse.core.resources.IProject"/>
</or>
</selectionEnablement>
<editorInputEnablement>
<or>
<adapt type="org.eclipse.core.resources.IProject"/>
<instanceof value="org.eclipse.core.resources.IProject"/>
</or>
</editorInputEnablement>
</linkHelper>
</extension>
I implemented the class:
public class MyExplorerLinkHelper implements ILinkHelper {
@Override
public IStructuredSelection findSelection(IEditorInput anInput) {
...
}
@Override
public void activateEditor(IWorkbenchPage aPage, IStructuredSelection aSelection) {
...
}
}
