Can I prevent an editor from being restored? [message #332607]

Hello,

With 3.4 one can prevent a view from being restored:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=215797

Is the same thing supported for editors too?

Thanks,
Connie

Maybe you could attach listeners to the IWorkbench and close your
editors before the shutdown or something?

It's the IEditorInput that persists editors. If your IEditorInput
returns null from org.eclipse.ui.IEditorInput.getPersistable() or
exists()==false the editor won't be persisted.
