Listener for embedded editor?? [message #286759]

I have two perspectives A and B. Perspective A has an embedded editor A
in view A. Perspective B has an editor B. Editor A and B edit the same
document just differently.

It is a requirement to have two perspectives and the editor A embedded
into view A for perspective A.

Here is what I'm attempting:

If embedded Editor A has a file open and the user swaps to perspective B,
then I need to open Editor B on the same file unless its already open and
vice/versa when swapping perspectives.

I've tried using IPerspectiveListener3 and IPartListener.

My problem is that the IPartListener will only tell me when my view with
the embedded editor is activated, deactivated etc but nothing about the
editor embedded within it. I embedded my editor using
WorkbenchPartFactory's createEditor() method. And yes I understand this
is internal and experimental.

Is there an internal/experimental way to deal with embedded views/editors
and part listeners in the manner described above?

I had this working using the IPerspectiveListener3, when the editor wasn't
embedded. So I'm trying to figure out what listener I should use when
using embedded views/editors. Or if there is some *generic* listener that
I could use to have the embedded editor fire off methods when its
opened/closed.

And if anyone else is working with embedded views/editors I'd be
interested to collaborate with you.
