Enable Debug in Custom Editor [message #1711125]

I've created a custom editor that is based on TextEditor (so nothing to do with JavaEditor). I'm trying to enable debugging with in this editor but I'm not able to work out how to hook into the debug toolbar.

Ideally I'd enable the toolbar [buttons] when Debug is run and handle the events myself as they come in although there could be other ways.

Does anyone have any ideas?

The following article provides a [rather awkward] demo but it contains enough information to enable debugging in a custom editor (including toggle breakpoints, breakpoint and debug views): https://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-Debugger/how-to.html

Note: You may need to open the Debug view and select your launch delegate from the list in order for the debug toolbar to enable correctly.
