| markerAnnotationSpecification problems: Highlights not showing [message #265593] |

In my plugin.xml file I define both a
org.eclipse.ui.editors.annotationTypes structure and a
org.eclipse.ui.editors.markerAnnotationSpecification specification.
What I want to do is apply these annotations (specifically, highlighting
the text a color; similar to what the google toolbar "highlight" feature
does with text on web-pages) to a marker. My markers show perfectly in the
editors, but the highlighting doesn't.
Here's how I create it:
IMarker marker;
MarkerAnnotation annotation;
marker = file.createMarker("edu.ucsd.aspectbrowser.aspectmarker");
marker.setAttributes(map);
annotation = new MarkerAnnotation("edu.ucsd.aspectbrowser.highlight",
marker);
annotation.update();
Has someone else run into problems with this? Is there a short code sample
that shows how to perform text highlighting via markers?
Thanks,
Macneil

Here's what I have:
<extension point="org.eclipse.core.resources.markers"
id="aspectmarker"
name="Aspect Marker">
<persistent value="false"/>
</extension>
<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.editors.annotationTypes">
<type name="edu.ucsd.aspectbrowser.highlight"/>
</extension>
<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.editors.markerAnnotationSpecification ">
<specification
colorPreferenceValue="0,255,255"
annotationType="edu.ucsd.aspectbrowser.highlight"
overviewRulerPreferenceValue="false"
presentationLayer="3"/>
</extension>
And, no, the annotation doesn't show up in the preferences screen. What am
I doing wrong?

I found the solution:
<extension point="org.eclipse.core.resources.markers"
id="aspectmarker"
name="aspectmarker">
<super type="org.eclipse.core.resources.textmarker"/>
<persistent value="false"/>
</extension>
<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.editors.annotationTypes">
<type name="edu.ucsd.aspectbrowser.highlightannotation"
markerType="edu.ucsd.aspectbrowser.aspectmarker"/>
</extension>
<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.editors.markerAnnotationSpecification ">
<specification
annotationType="edu.ucsd.aspectbrowser.highlightannotation"
verticalRulerPreferenceKey="highlight.rulers.vertical"
textPreferenceKey="highlight.text"
colorPreferenceKey="highlight.color"
highlightPreferenceKey="highlight.background"
textPreferenceValue="false"
textStylePreferenceValue="NONE"
overviewRulerPreferenceKey="highlight.rulers.overview"
presentationLayer="4"
highlightPreferenceValue="true"
label="Aspect Browser"
colorPreferenceValue="253,255,157"
verticalRulerPreferenceValue="true"
overviewRulerPreferenceValue="true"
textStylePreferenceKey="highlight.text.style"/>
</extension>
Thanks everyone!
