Hello,

I want to get the path of the current document. For example if I have this
strucutre :

MyProject
|-- Folder 1
|-- Folder 2
|-- Folder 3
|-- File.java

and I'm editing File.java, I want to becom the path Folder 3/File.java or
MyProject/Folder 3/File.java.

How can I do that ? I mean this should be a very basic functionnality or
not ?

Thanks for help,
Alain

Assuming you're working with an IEditorPart, which has an IEditorInput,
that is most likely an IFileEditorInput, which gives you a handle to the
backing IFile, which has various methods for retrieving the IPath. You
can manipulate the segments in the path to get what you need.
