Hi,

I want to open a custom IEditorInput in a single instance, as I know I
have to write the exist() method. Is there the only way to check the
opened editorInputs or exist the simplier way? Another question how to
activate the already opened IEditorInput?

Thanks in advance

Got this from the Hyperbola example

Session session = Session.getIntance();
ChatEditorInput input = new ChatEditorInput(session, entry.getUser());
IEditorPart editor = page.findEditor(input);
if (editor != null) {
page.activate(editor);
return;
}
try {
page.openEditor(input, ChatEditor.ID);
} catch (PartInitException e) {
HyperbolaUtils.log("Unable to open chat editor", e);
}

Everything is working fine, but if I push the right click on the editor
tab there is a New Editor menuItem. How can I disabled it?

Check out the activities extension point and
Preferences>General>Capabilities. You can use activities to remove
certain menu items ... you just have to find the id for the menu item
you wish to remove.
