Editor management causing problems [message #32172]

We have an Eclipse editor that implements an SSH Terminal client that
we use to work on remote servers. A problem we have is that when we
activate tasks Mylyn will close this editor in addition the regular
ones. Is there something we can do to fix this? It does not seem
unreasonable that you might have editors that are not for local
resources and I cannot see why Mylyn should close those.

I am not sure what API's exist that Mylyn could use to figure this out.

If you have reasons to not consider this, can you think of any code we
could put in our editor to stop you from closing us?

Yup, you just need to implement IContextAwareEditor and return false for
canClose(). I just updated the wiki docs to make this clear:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/Mylyn_Integrator_Reference#Task-Focu sed_UI

Note that if this method meets your needs you should create a bug report
for making it API, since that class is currently internal.

The best place for this kind of question is currently the
mylyn-integrators mailing list, so CC'ing.

Is it possible to use "adaptable" mechanisms instead of explicitly
implementing Mylyn API?

Eugene
