JavaEditorPreferencePage without hacking the JDT code? I've been trying to
get access to the control by creating a subclass of
JavaEditorPreferencePage but I just can't get it to work. The only thing
that does work for me is hacking the JDT code but I'd prefer to write a
plug-in that adds the checkbox. I could write a new preference page but
the option belongs with the JavaEditorPreferencePage. HELP!!!

Thanks,

Tim

"no" because you know this to be true?

Hi,

When you creating the subclass of JavaEditorPreferencePage did you change
the class name to your own class in the plugin.xml of the jdt.ui plugin? If
you change it to contain the name of your new class it maybe works (of
course, you cannot do it in another plugin entirely because of the
modification of plugin.xml :-()

while extending the JavaEditorPreferencePage to add a checkbox.

The person who told you that it's not possible is a member of the JDT
development team. Maybe I'm being naive, but I trust that he knows what
he's talking about. :-)
