Hi,

I'm desperately trying to programmatically collapse and expand methods in a JDT-Editor.

I read the documentation about the fundamental basics of folding, but I assume it's probably outdated. (http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-Folding-in-Eclipse-Text-Editors/folding.html)

My first approach didn't work:
IJavaFoldingStructureProviderExtension extension = JavaPlugin.getDefault().getFoldingStructureProviderRegistry().getCurrentFoldingProvider();

ICompilationUnit c = ...; // c is actually a class
try {
    IJavaElement[] elements = c.getAllTypes()[0].getMethods();
    extension.collapseElements(elements);
} catch (JavaModelException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}


While running the debugger, I found out that the "elements"-array contains all methods, so the call to collapse didn't work.

Has anyone ever done something similar or can give me any hints/examples?

Thanks,
Søren
