Project & editor creation [message #54151]

Hi,

I'm working on a learning project on my studies. I should make an
Eclipse plug-in that can create a project that features java and html.
It should be able to create some specific custom files too and have an
editor to edit them and show the code like other good editors do.

So far I have created a wizards for empty project and that custom file.
Now I'm stuck on which way to go with the Java feature. Should I use
org.eclipse.jdt.core.JavaCore to create JavaProject and customize it -
if it's even possible - or something else... I also supposed to be able
to change the compiler and the source directories.

And the other thing... What way should I go on the editor? Can I extend
some existing editor with my own features and what editor could that be?

Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!

It sounds like you are trying to generate Java code. If that is the
case, JET may be useful.
