Hi All,

Is there any way to open web page editor through code/program by providing appropriate html file path
I want to open some html files in web page editor for my plugin view on click of an action.

Also need to open css editor too programmatically.
Kindly replay asap

Any help would be really appreciable Smile

Hi,

I think you'll want to use the method
IDE.openEditor(IWorkbenchPage page, IFile input, String editorId)
The editorId for the Web Page Editor is org.eclipse.jst.pagedesigner.PageDesignerEditor. The editorId for the CSS editor is org.eclipse.wst.css.core.csssource.source.

But since the CSS editor is already the default for CSS files, to simplify things, you can just use
IDE.openEditor(IWorkbenchPage, IFile input)

Thanks for replying so soon


What if my html files are not in workspace?
In that case the above method is not at all useful.

Kindly help to open WTP editor for those html files which are stored as FILESTORE
not IFile of some project..

Thanks Smile

Hi once again.

I tried to open WTP editor using below code

IWorkspace workspace = ResourcesPlugin.getWorkspace();
IWorkspaceRoot root = workspace.getRoot();
IProject project = root.getProject("Project");
IFolder folder = project.getFolder("src");
IFile file = folder.getFile("AllWidgets.htm");
IWorkbenchPage page = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage();

try {
IDE.openEditor( page, file, "org.eclipse.jst.pagedesigner.PageDesignerEditor");
} catch ( PartInitException e ) {
}


But is it giving me exception .
Attached exception log

Thanks Smile

To open a file outside of the workspace you can use
IDE.openEditor(IWorkbenchPage page, URI uri, String editorId, boolean activate)

where uri is the URI of the filesystem location of the resource you want to open.

Do you have the stacktrace for what caused the PartInitException? That IllegalArgumentException just seems to be a side effect of the PartInitException.

Hi thanks for response,


I tried to catch exception in catch block and tried to get stacktrace
after debugging i tried to see the exception log,, but it seems catch block in my piece of code is not getting executed.

Please tell me if i have done something wrong to catch exception..

Thanks
