How to add variable Resolver to the JavaContext ?

I have the following plugin description :

<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.editors.templates">
<template id="com.biomerieux.tools.beautify.template.bmxLogger"
contextTypeId="java" name="bmxLogger" description="Java class logger">
<pattern>private static final java.util.logging.Logger ${logger_field_name}
= java.util.logging.Logger.getLogger(${enclosing_type}.class.g etName());
</pattern>
</template>
<resolver
name="Logger field name"
type="logger_field_name"
contextTypeId="java"
description="Name of the field used as logger (defined in beautify
preference)"
class="org.toto.fieldAdder.logger.LoggerVariableResolver"
/>
</extension>

but nothing happend.
if I execute in debug mode the following code :

org.eclipse.jface.text.templates.TemplateContextType l_tct =
org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.JavaPlugin.getDefault().getTempl ateContextRegistry().getContextType( "java");
l_tct.addResolver(new
org.toto.fieldAdder.logger.logger.LoggerVariableResolver());

then it works .
Do I have to put that code some place ? in that case why is it necessary
to declare it in the plug in ?

thanks
Guillaume

(I made an error when tyoing this message. it's not an issue of class not
found).

The Java editor does not currently allow variables to be contributed but
only recognizes its built in ones.

that means that I have to put some initialisation somewhere ?
any idea of where I shall put that so that when my plugin is initialised
those Resolver are added ?

I used the extension point org.eclipse.ui.startup to put this
initialisation ... that's not as clean as I wish but that seams to work.

As I said, the Java editor chooses not to respect resolvers contributed
to its two context types ('java' and 'javadoc'), but only recognizes the
built-in resolvers.

If you implement your own editor, you can simply set up a
ContributionTemplateStore in your plug-in class, and call
createContextType(String). This will try to instantiate the specified
context type and any contributed variable resolvers. You can do that
lazily the first time that someone requests the context type registry.
