What exactly is the "it" to which you're referring? The properties dialog
that lets you specify the text that will be considered a task, the parsing
of the Java code, highlighting in the editor, presentation in the Tasks
pane, indication in the gutter, ...?
At the platform level, TODO items are marker annotations (IMarker), just
like syntax errors. All the compiler has to do is find them in the code and
create the markers. If you look in org.eclipse.jdt.core, at
AbstractImageBuilder.acceptResult(), you'll see where compilation results
(which contain tasks and errors) get translated into markers.

Dani understood the question I was asking...Yeah, I already know how to
do the above and how marker works. Thanks, anyway. My question was
mainly if "TODO" could be not even using a builder, that is, simply
listening to text event changes.
