Hi,
i need to open a project in my RCP application from code. I've done with this function

	
@Override
public void run() {
	IPath path = new Path("/MyReports/Coffee_4.jrxml");
	IFile sampleFile =  new FileTest(path,(Workspace)ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace());
	try {
	 EditorUtility.openInEditor(sampleFile, true);
	} catch (PartInitException e) {
	 e.printStackTrace();
	}
}


Where FileTest is a subclass of org.eclipse.core.internal.resources.File, since its constructor is protected. It works but i get a lot of "discouraged access" warnings, so probably this method isn't a clean one. Is there some other way to do this?

UPDATE:

I've found a more clean way with

@Override
public void run() {
  IPath path = new Path("/MyReports/Coffee_4.jrxml");
  IFile sampleFile =  ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace().getRoot().getFile(path);
  try {
    EditorUtility.openInEditor(sampleFile, true);
  } catch (PartInitException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
  }
}


But i've still the same problem since even EditorUtility.openInEditor is discouraged

It's "clean" but not intended to use by clients. Same is true for
'EditorUtility'

Take a look at
org.eclipse.ui.ide.IDE.openEditorOnFileStore(IWorkbenchPage, IFileStore)
