How to create new view that shows information about Java source? [message #178229]

Hi all - I want to create a really simple plug-in for Eclipse that just
provides a new view that displays some information about the current
selection in the Java source file being edited. This would be very
similar to the Declaration view - i.e. you click on some Java element in
the editor and the view updates to show some information about the
element.

However, I can't figure out how to register a listener with the Java
source code editor to get events when the user changes the cursor
position/selection. Can anybody point me in the right direction for how
to get those events?
