Hi,

I have just ported across my plug-in from 2.1 to m7 and am having a
problem.
It is giving me the following error in one of my custom class files which
i cannot get to the bottom of.
"The type org.eclipse.ui.texteditor.ExtendedTextEditor cannot be resolved.
It is indirectly referenced from required .class files."

Also I cannot seem to add imported plugins to my class path. These
problems are probably related!

Has anybody had any similar type errors????????????????

i do not really know what's the error, but maybe it is what i already read
in an article about migrating from eclipse 2 to 3

it was written, that org.eclipse.ui moved to org.eclipse.ui.ide

maybe you should try then to change it from
org.eclipse.ui.texteditor.ExtendedTextEditor
to
org.eclipse.ui.ide.texteditor.ExtendedTextEditor

-----------------------------------
Importing org.eclipse.ui.ide still does not resolve any plugin refernce
problems and i'm still getting the same errors.

The thing is i have no reference whatsoever to this ExtendedTextEditor as
its new since eclipse 3.
When i try to add my imported plugins to the java build path it doesnt
work, complaining that each plugin is a duplicate entry.

Also it complains that "The project cannot be built since its build path
is incomplete. Cannot find the class file for
org.eclipse.ui.texteditor.ExtendedTextEditor"

I'm still quite puzzled! Its probably something very obvious that i'm
missing!!!

What's your workspace setup? Have you imported the
org.eclipse.ui.workbench.texteditor plug-in as a binary plug-in, or via
a PDE plug-in container?

ExtendedTextEditor is the superclass of TextEditor, which you are
probably referencing somewhere.

Got it sorted Tom ....eventually!!
Starting from scratch seemed to get rid of the duplicate plugin error and
importing the org.eclipse.ui.editors seemed to solve the
ExtendedTextEditor indirect reference error.
Thank god!!
