Hello,
I have integrated a 3rd-part plugin into my Eclipse-RCP-APP, it's like a
type of XML editor. But the plugin only accepts files which are attached
into the workspace with a proyect. The code of the editor is like the
following:
public void init(IEditorSite site, IEditorInput input) throws
PartInitException {
FileEditorInput fileInput = (FileEditorInput)input; // XXX
...
...
}
If I try to open a external file(away form the workspace, type of
"java.io.File"), it will throw an exception while doing the casting.
There are 2 ideas, which I have now in my mind. They are:
1. Attach the external file into the workspace while trying to open it.
2. Convert a external "java.io.File" into
"org.eclipse.ui.part.FileEditorInput".
I prefer the 2nd way, I think it's cleaner but I don't know if it's
viable, because I've seen that the FileEditorInput contains a a interfaz
IFile which contains at the same time, informations of the workspace.
Maybe the 1st way will be easier.
Would you give me any recomendation of which to choose and how to carry it
out? Or any more suggestion will be welcome also.
Thanks in advance.

Integrate a 3td part plugin(for Eclipse) into a RCP app is trivial. You
only need to import the necesary official Eclipse plugins in your project,
then... nothing, it's all.

I'a afraid that the ideas on www.eclipsezone.com do not work to change
File to IFile.
Anyone has more suggestion about this?
Thanx
