Accessing the EditorInput in IdetailsPage [message #538608]

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to make a plugin for Eclipse in which I am creating a MutliPageEditor. I have observed that the tutorials on this topic are very sparse on net and the only good reading is default tutorial by Dejan Glozic.
Anyway, my question is

How do i access the Editor in the IdetailsPage ?
I need to access the EditorInput from there on.

Thanks in advance,
Sandeep.

Hi,
I solved this few minutes ago (with help from the wiki):

IWorkbench wb = PlatformUI.getWorkbench();
IWorkbenchWindow win = wb.getActiveWorkbenchWindow();
IWorkbenchPage page = win.getActivePage();
IEditorPart editor = page.getActiveEditor();

perfect! thanks a lot !

Btw, in which wiki did you look ?

The biggest problem i am facing while developing this plugin with Eclipse forms is that i am not finding any good API/tutorial .. (also i am developing this plugin with very minimal previous experience in SWT and Jface, so that adds to the problems)..

Thanks again.
