Getting the editor from a PropertySection [message #519886]

Hi!

I have the following Problem:

I have a class that subclasses AbstractPropertySection to provide a PropertiesView for a GEF editor. Now I need to access the Editor from that PropertyView.

Or more specifically: I need to get the IFile that is being edited.

I can't find a way to get the editor from the PropertySection class. Am I missing something or is there just no way to do this?

Thanks and Greetings,
Fabian

The Editor should be the Editor Part in:

public void setInput(IWorkbenchPart part, ISelection selection)

And perhaps the IFile is in the selection?
