Unable to create this part due to an internal error. Reason for the
failure: The editor class could not be instantiated. This usually
indicates that the editor's class name was mistyped in plugin.xml.

Why?
help.

Look in the plugin.xml file and find the editor you are trying to
invoke. Make sure you fully qualified the class name such as
mycompany.product.ui.EditorControl. Make sure it is spelled correctly
and the case of all the letters is correct.

You can also use the plugin manifest editor to "browse" for the proper
class eliminating all the possible typing errors. Open the plugin.xml
file and go to the Extensions page and file the org.eclipse.ui.editors
area, expand it to find the one that is giving you problems and fix it
in there.

Also be sure the class extends the proper SWT/JFACE class. Make sure you
export the class on the runtime tab too.

But the first editor is success,second is fail.

So what's in the error log ... Help>About Eclipse>Configuration
Details>View Error Log.

If you try to open an editor and it fails, that's usually where the
information goes.
