Navigator customization [message #188078] Mon, 02 February 2004 03:56

Hi all,

I'm looking for a way to customize the navigator a bit. What I'm after is
to assign individual icons to folders I created in the project/workspace.
Is this possible with Eclipse?

Another thing which keeps be thinking is this: Eclipse's workspace is file
based. Every object is basically backed up by a file. At least this is my
understanding. Now I wonder, is it possible to define a kind of virtual
file? What I want is to display sub items for an entry in the navigator,
which are not based on an entire file but rather a part of a larger file.
For instance, imagine an XML file, which is to represent a set of
formulas. I can easily get an entry for it in the navigator. Now I want
"virtual" subitems for each formula in the file, for which I would write a
custom editor. The main reason behind this idea is to lower the amount of
files involved in a new project, which can easily get tens of thousands of
files if I base every single entity on a single file.

I appreciate any help on this.

Mike
