Hi,

I have a source file. How can I open it in the java editor *on a
specific line*. The problem is that JavaUI.openInEditor() method does
not give me the option to set the wanted line.

Thank you in advance,
Michael

You first open the editor and then check whether the editor you get is
an ITextEditor. If so, you an use its API to compute the offset and
length of your line and then select and reveal it. Look at
GotoLineAction if you don't know how to code it.
