Is it possible to build stand alone application with GEF? Without RCP and
Eclipse.

I don't see why this can't be done. As long as you include the gef
plugins as part of your dependencies, it should be ok.

Actually now I have the same question. IFileEditorInput cannot be used
when making an RCP app because RCP will not import org.eclipse.ui.ide
jar. Is there a work around? I was told to implement IPathEditorInput,
but I have no idea what I would fill the methods with since I have not
seen an EditorInput implementation before.

TIA,
Diwant

Good question,

I saw an answer posted a while back in a GEF/EMF article:
http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-GEF-EMF/gef-emf.html (under the
section "Bonus: Shapes Example goes RCP!")

Basically we can roll our own editor input with IPathEditorInput (which
implements the IEditorInput) and change the setInput() function in our
editor to accept the new editor input we have created.

I think I read the same one! However, it doesn't hint to how to
implement the IPathEditorInput interface. Also, I changed my project
includes and now it seems to find IFileEditorInput. I really wish I
knew what I did exactly to make this work, though.
