Hi all,

I'm developing my simple plugin but I don't know how can I get Text Content. Can you help me?

I search on internet but I don't found solution.

IEditorPart editor = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().getActiveEditor();
TextEditor textEditor = (TextEditor) editor;

and then???

Thanks in advance

Luca

I found solution, sorry

final IEditorPart activeEditor = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage().getActiveEditor();
ITextEditor editor = (ITextEditor) activeEditor;
IDocumentProvider dp = editor.getDocumentProvider();
IDocument doc = dp.getDocument(editor.getEditorInput());

doc.get(); //this is text

Thanks

L
