Hello,
I am looking for any suggestions about creating a IJavaElement for a class
that resides in an external jar. Do I need to go through creating IRecource
for a jar, and then user JavaCore.create(IResource)? Then get IJavaElement
out of the result? Is the IProject required for any of this?
I would greatly appreciate any pointers. Thanks.

Sorry I don't know what the JDO persitence store is, so I cannot help you
here.

Jerome, It really doesn't matter what JDO is in this context. Let's rephrase
it:
The questions I am going to ask are what is the TypeHierarchy of this
class - I want to pass this java element to the TypeHierarchyViewer. My
class instance instantiated in memory and is described in
a local jar - I need to present its relationships exactly as in the java IDE
type
browser. Please confirm that for this scenario I have to have a fake
project (I hate the idea to have it). Thanks again.

To create an ITypeHierarchy, the element has to exist (in the Java model
sense). So the IClassFile has to be on the classpath of a Java project. So
yes you will have to create a project if you want to open a type hierarchy.

Jerome,
Thanks to your help I am able to do most of what I wanted. However, I have
ran into two problems: 1. When TypeHierarchy view opens for a IType an
attempt is made automatically to also open a class file editor - my end user
is not supposed to see it, but I don't know how to prevent it from opening.
2. The hierarchy view does not show the hiearchy - it only shows the class
itself. Does it mean that the external jar file which contains the class in
question does not have all necessary info?
Thanks.
