Displaying multiple resources in editor area [message #178701]

All,

I would like to display different resources in 2 section of an editor (as
opposed to the conventional tab approach for all resources - each resource
in a tab of editor) . In the top section I would like to display resources
that use graphical editor. In the botton section I would like to display
text resource editors.

If there are multiple resources that need graphical editor then I want
them to be tabbed but in the top section. Similarly if there are multiple
resources that need text editor then I want them to be tabbed but in the
bottom section.

e.g. I have seen similar examples for modeling tools where the graphical
model is displayed at the top (resource e.g - a XMI resource) and the
botton section displays the generated source from the model (resource e.g.
- .java files etc..)

Any help on how to do this is appreciated.

Regards,

Sunil.

All Eclipse users can already do this manually. You can split the editor
area by dragging the editors.

If you want two different views of the same file visible at the same time
(kinda like a split view), look at how VEP does that.

Reusing the Java editor is going to be very difficult. See bug 46207.

Can this be done using an API?

I am looking to do option 1 above.

Probably. This does not fall in the GEF domain. Ask on the platform
newsgroup.
