Extending text editors with non-text dropsupport [message #709095]

Hi,

I would like to add my own drop support in a standard text editor (JavascriptEditor).

From AbstractTextEditor.ITextEditorDropTargetListener() I see that I can use an adapter to create a ITextEditorDropTargetListener for my own transfer type.
That works ok, my listener is added as droplistener to the text widget.

The problem now is that AbstractTextEditor.installTextDragAndDrop() overwrites my listener with its own using:
dndService.addMergedDropTarget(st, DND.DROP_MOVE | DND.DROP_COPY, new Transfer[] {TextTransfer.getInstance()}, dropTargetListener);

How can I combine my drop listener with the existing drop listener for text transfers?

Thanks in advance,

Rob
