Hi,

I want to add text hover to problem markers created with
IFile.createMarker(), but I can't find any documentation on how this is
done. The only thing I have found others with the same question like this:
http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.platform/msg70 933.html

Is there a standard way to add text hover to a problem markers?

Since others seemed to be confused by the same issue here is the solution
that I found.

To get annotation hover text for problem markers just add the following
method to your SourceViewerConfiguration sub class:

public IAnnotationHover getAnnotationHover( ISourceViewer sourceViewer ){

//defining this is necessary for getting hover messages on markers.
return new DefaultAnnotationHover();
}

The DefaultAnnotationHover class takes care of the rest.
