Can I call a JFace content formatter programatically? [message #324348]

I'm looking for a way to apply a content formatter that implements
IContentFormatter on a document without that document being opened in
the according textviewer.
What I'm aiming at is to format an AspectJ file using AJDT's formatter.

Something like:
getAJCodeFormatter().format("C:/MyAspect.aj");

Regards, Stevy

You can use file buffers (see org.eclipse.core.filebuffers plug-in) to
get the document for your file, then call the formatter on the document
and afterwards commit the file buffer.
