Well - after digging around a bit I found that TextMergeViewer tries to
pull a font out of the font registry who key is my classname (weird?).
Anyway - I managed to get my own Font to work by inserting the following
at the end of configureTextViewer():
JFaceResources.getFontRegistry().put(getClass().getName(),
new FontData[] {new FontData("Courier New", 10, SWT.NORMAL)});
This strikes me as a bit of a *hack*. I assume this will all work once
I start implementing preference pages for my source viewer (which is
coming later in my schedule) - but if someone knows the right way to do
this or would like to comment on the magnitude on the "hack-o-meter" of
the above line of code, please feel free. ;o)
Thanks,
Mark.
