programmatically opening GraphicalEditor [message #86798]

Hi All,

I want to open my GraphicalEditor programmatically as a result of a menu
selection by the user. The problem I have is what input should I give to
openEditor() method of IWorkbenchPage. I've tried many things, but I
always get a NullPointerException.

Thanks

Bharat

You should probably use the same IEditorInput you use when it is opened
regulary. Also don't forget the editor id. A good point to look at is the
EditorUtility class available in JDT UI source.
