Re: [platform-text-dev] Going from ITextEditor to ITextViewer andback

It is not a good
practice to access the text widget unless you do it for your own editor.
Please see org.eclipse.jface.text.ITextViewer.getTextWidget() for details.

One of the reasons I wanted to do this, is to access the StyledText control
via the text viewer.

Today I discovered that you can access the StyledText from the editor directly
via getAdapter():

    StyledText textWidget = (StyledText) editor.getAdapter(Control.class);

Are these adapter relationships documented somewhere?

Thanks,
Nate
