I have created two Editors for particular type of file Namely DCEditor and
MDEditor.
When i right click on the file it should give OPEN WITH options for Both
Editor. And i also want that i can put some condition for Open With ie if
file size is greater than 100kb then MDEditor option seems enabled
otherwise not.
How can i do this.

Not sure about the size constraint issue, but to get both editors in the
Open With dialog, you should be able to add both file suffixes to your
editor's "extensions" field in plugin.xml.

For example in the logic example:
<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.editors">
<editor
name="%Logic_example_graphical_editor_name"
default="true"
icon="logic.gif"
extensions="logic"

contributorClass="org.eclipse.gef.examples.logicdesigner.actions.LogicAction
BarContributor"
class="org.eclipse.gef.examples.logicdesigner.LogicEditor"
id="Logic Graphical Editor">
</editor>
</extension>

If you changed extensions="logic" to extensions="logic, logic2", the logic
editor would show up as a choice of files that ended with .logic and
..logic2.

Also, you might consult the eclipse.platform group about the file size
question.
