Hi all,

This is not a xtext specific doubt. But I am generating an excel file from my xtext project.
Typically to open this file I follow:
right click on it -> open with -> system editor

OR

I can set this as part of File Association also.

But is it possible to open a file with System Editor by default if we double click on it ?
Can we achieve this programmatically ?

Thanks for any help Smile

Arshad

i dont know that but you may have a look at

Eclipse/Window -> Preferences -> General -> Editors -> File Associations

to assoiate external editors with a file association
