Hi,
I have the need to provide hyperlinks in comments (as an example
recognize a URL in a comment and making it clickable).
Grateful if someone could suggest how to implement something like that.
Regards

Thanks,
Splitting up the text into fine grained grammar opens up a very large
can of worms, and I was thinking of finding the links in the data type
conversion. I currently use a String for the documentation data, but
could just as well have a type that contains more information.
Or, is there some other place where it is convenient to introduce
"additional parsing" ? I can imagine computing offsets on demand and
storing in an adapter for instance.

Hi Sven, hi Henrik,
the URLHyperlinkeDetector is registered as well. The bound detector is
added to the default list of hyperlinke detectors in the
XtextSourceViewerConfiguration.

Sebastian
