F_PRIMARY_WORKING_COPY: should this flag be set when opening the editor? [message #254398]

Hello

I need to extract fine grained source code changes (i.e. method body
changes) for what I use IElementChangedListener. Since for method body
changes the provided IJavaElementDelta contains the hole ICompilationUnit
I'm trying to adapt the approach described in "How to compute fine grained
JavaElementDelta if Compilation Unit has only not-structural changes?".

In short the compilation unit is stored as soon as it is opened (old
version) and future changes are extracted by comparing the old with the
new version. To get notified as soon as a compilation unit is opened the
IJavaElementDelta should be flagged with F_PRIMARY_WORKING_COPY according
to the mentioned approach. That's where I am stuck: the condition of

if ((delta.getFlags() & IJavaElementDelta.F_PRIMARY_WORKING_COPY) != 0) {
...
}

never evaluates to true.

Am I missing something?

Thanks for your help!

cheers
jonas

Can anybody help?

What I'm trying to is to get notified as soon as a java file gets opened
by the java editor. Is there another way than registering myself as an
IElementChangedListener?
