Hi,

I have a dialog with an area that I want to imbed an XML editor. Since
web tool has one, I want to embed its editor. This I can do, as long as
I know web tool's editor's main class/plugin to instantiate it.

Any tips?

Thanks!

Programmatically, that is.

It is generally not recommended that you directly embed editors inside
of dialogs or other controls. Instead, you should embed the editor's
SourceViewer and then add the extra actions you need.

But, if you do want to embed the editor..
XML editor, including design & source page:
org.eclipse.wst.xml.ui.internal.tabletree.XMLMultiPageEditor Part

Just the XML source page editor:
org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui.StructuredTextEditor
and when you pass in the IEditorSite for the editor, make sure the site
you pass in has an id of ContentTypeIdForXML.ContentTypeID_XML +
".source" (see XMLMultiPageEditorPart#createSite for example)

You can imbed the entire editor page into a dialog area? I know how to
embed the source viewer, but not the entire editor. How would you do
that? (I can certainly open an editor instance using the id
org.eclipse.wst.xml.ui.internal.tabletree.XMLMultiPageEditor Part. But,
that's about it.)

Thanks.

I am also interested to do the same thing.

In fact, I will like to make a MultiPageEditorPart which combines an XML editor, a JavaScript editor and an CSS editor, each one in a different tab.

How is it possible?

PS : I am totally newby ! :-)
