Is it possible to embed a text editor into a Java Swing application?
More specific, I want to embed the XML editor of WTP into a Java Swing
application. The integration with the Preferences and with the Problems
View is not required, I only need the XML editor with code completion
functionality as "standalone" component to use it in a Swing-based
application.

Yeah, I don't see a way to embed it. I think it may be possible to set
up a minimal RCP application with the editor included. Since
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=176492 the XML editor is
now a separate feature.
But it would take a lot of work to hide the rest of the platform you
don't care about. And you would still have to launch a new window from
your Swing app.
Anyone tried something like this before?
