Hi all,

I want to display a text hover functionality in eclipse editors without contributing a new editor. That means my hover functionality shall work on CDT editor ,JDT editor (java editor) and all other text editors.Is their any generic extension point is present for this purpose ? I know, for java editor org.eclipse.jdt.ui.javaEditorTextHovers is there and for CDT editor org.eclipse.cdt.ui.textHovers is there. But I want the hover shall work in all type of editors. is there any extension point present for this?

Thank you in advance.
