Problems with IStorageEditorInput [message #242774]

Hi,

My little GEF-editor is embedded in an RCP. I want to save my Diagrams
in a database. So I decided to implement the interface
IStorageEditorInput in MyEditorInput (bad idea???).

The editor is called via an action in a package of the RCP.

***
MyEditorInput editorInput = new MyEditorInput();
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActi vePage().openEditor((IEditorInput)
editorInput,MyEditor.ID);
***

Now I get an error. Eclipse wants me to configure the build path, but I
don't know in wich way... "The type org.eclipse.ui.IStorageEditorInput
cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from
required .class files"

I tried some other interfaces. With IPathEditorInput (not useable for
storage in db) i got no probs...

Any ideas?

br,
Guido

Guido,

In the plugin that's complaining, you need to add a dependency on the
org.eclipse.ui.ide plugin in the MANIFEST.MF's dependencies tab, but
that's the Eclipse IDE plugin, so not sure if you want to do that...

You're right, I don't want to do that. Is there no other possiblity? Do
I have to write my own implementation of IEditorInput?

Guido,

Yes, I suspect that writing your own implementation is best. If you're
using EFS, I suppose maybe something based directly of IFileStore might
make sense. Or you might use IURIEditorInput and your application would
now how to interpret the URI with respect to the database.
