I am in the process of writing my own plugin view which needs to be able
to open java source files in the editor and select a given line. I have
the filename and the line number available to me and would like to know
how turn these into the action I require.

Can anyone offer help / starting point - thanks

One way to do this is to create a text marker in the file with the
appropriate offset and length, and then use

IWorkbenchPage.openEditor(IMarker) or
IEditorPart.gotoMarker(IMarker)

You can delete the marker after opening using IMarker.delete.
There is a utility class for creating text markers called
MarkerUtilities in org.eclipse.ui.texteditor.
