Performing automatic corrections [message #1059692]

The Java editor automatically corrects the code in some cases... For example, if I have a class B which extends a class A, I can declare an object myObject in this way:

A myObject = new B();

but now, supposing that myMethod is a method definied in the subclass B, if I try to call it directly on myObject (declared of type A):

myObject.myMethod()

the editor in some cases automatically adds a cast converting the code as following:

((B)myObject).myMethod()

Now, I have to implement some automatic corrections on user typing. Is there some Xtext or Eclipse support for implementing them?

Where can I hook to do this?

Thanks in advance,
Marco
