ZEST as Editor rather than a View [message #1751816]

HI

From what i have understand we can use ZEST in an Eclipse plugin as a view (extending ViewPart), but what if I want to use Zest in a Eclipse Editor ?
Is that possible ?

Regards.

Hi,

basically, anything that can be put into an Eclipse ViewPart can also be part of an Eclipse EditorPart. Zest also does not expect anything about its container, so it can be trivially used in an editor as well.

Best regards,
Zoltán

While a direct integration is provided in terms of IViewPart implementation, Zest viewers (GEF-Legacy: GraphViewer, GEF4: FXViewer with bindings from ZestFxModule, GEF: InfiniteCanvasViewer with bindings from ZestFxModule) can also be integrated in an editor.
