Lock Lines in TextEditor [message #663657]

Hello,
I want to lock lines in an text editor. The text editor is the standard java editor (CompilationUnitEditor).

I want the user just to be able to write for example code in a method. Everything else in the editor should be locken. The user should really just be able to code the method body, nothing else.

I've seen editors locking lines, but I do not want to overwrite the hole javaeditor.
Is there any possibility to block lines just via the IEditorPart object of the editor?

Thanks in advance
Alex

Oh I got it implicit by adding a IEventConsumer to the TextViewer.

Within the IEVentConsumer, I set the event.doit = false if I am within a region which I do not want to be enabled for editing.

Thanks anyway for your help!

Kind regards
Alex

Dear Alex,

I have the same problem with my Editor.

Can you please explain, where you added the listener, and how you found out the current partition, where the event occured?

Thanks!
