Hello,

Is there a way to find the event when a user creates a new file(file -> other(header/source/..)? I know how to capture the event of the resource changed, but how can I specifically get the added file event?

Thank you!

All changes to the workspace produce resource deltas so definitely adding any new file will produce a delta. Of course the delta is a tree and you must visit (IResourceDeltaVisitor) the delta tree to see all the things that have changed, including IResourceDelta.ADDED.

Where should the code be placed? Some say to place it in the view class, but I am using the CommonNavigator class as a view so I cannot edit it.

Should I create a new view class that extends from the CommonNavigator?

Thank you!
