can't extend my class to CompilationUnitEditor [message #98199]

Hi all,

I have read in the article at Eclipse that I can 't extend my editor to
CompilationUnitEditor as it is an internal API.
Now my question is that I need to have some of the javaeditor
functionality in my javaeditor(the one i created).How can I get this
functionality.

Any idea/pointer or example code will really be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Syed

Yes it is internal. And still you CAN extend it.
however when testing you should include the appropriate plugins if you want
to run your editor without errors.
I've done it and it works ok for naow. I've tested it on eclipse 2.0, 21 and
3.0 and there are no chnghes in this functionality.
just override the class and set the plugin in which it stays as required.
that's all :))

You are writing your own editor? Why don't you copy
CompilationUnitEditor and everything you need from the internal
packages? This way you won't have to worry about it changing.

"Internal" just means there is no support, and that interfaces and
behaviour can change any time - you may still use the source.
