Singleton Editor or View? [message #460380]

I have a requirement to create a singleton Editor for a log file per
workspace. Should I create a View or a Editor?
The file can be edited, I need to some content markup, syntax highlighting
which are possible in a Editor. But how can
I have a Editor in a View? Or how can I have a singleton Editor?

thanx,
Rajesh

Hi Rajesh,

You can create a Singleton editor by making the EditorInput class singleton. For example -

public class TestEditorInput implements IEditorInput {
//Static instance
private static OrderEntryEditorInput instance = null;
private String user = "";

//Private Constructor which ensures singleton instance
private TestEditorInput (String user)
{
this.user = user;
}

//create static instance
public static TestEditorInput getInstance(String user)
{
if (instance == null)
{
instance = new TestEditorInput(user);
}
return instance;
}
....

I hope it works :)
