Hi,

is it possible to use the source code editor known to us from Eclipse in my own e4 RCP application? It is a pure e4 application and if possible I would really like to resign with the compatibility layer.

Currently I am using StyledText for my source code editor but it is a lot of work (syntax highlighting, code completion etc) that I think could be done much more elegant by using the Eclipse source code editor.

Thx

e3 source code editor in e4 rcp? afaik the answer is ... no.

I think the best choice atm would be the SourceViewer class from JFace. It has all the hooks for the features you listed.

Right anything from eclipse.text and eclipse.jface.text can be used
inside e4 apps - even in a none-swt-env ;-) See
