Finding out all editors available given a file type/extension? [message #305046]

Hi,

In Eclipse I can do "Preferences->General->Editors->File Associations"
and select a file extension to find out all the editors available for
that file type, as well as the default one set.

How is that done? Could someone please point me the code where Eclipse
does this?

Thanks.

Hi,

look in the method fillEditorTable() in the class
FileEditorsPreferencePage:
http://www.koders.com/java/fidF0084BE63F3149BDB9B21D312028E2 5376599202.aspx

There is the code about the available editors in the preferences.
