Hi,
some things I figured out by myself so
far:
- The code which evaluates the "enabled" property from
the preferences is in
org.eclipse.cdt.internal.ui.text.CSourceViewerConfiguration.getTextHover(ISourceViewer,
String, int)
- Preference changes take effect when the editor is
closed and reopened.
Still looks like preference changes are not applied
immediately i.e. to already open editors. This is still not nice, but it is a
minor problem from my perspective.

Hi folks,
we are currently
trying to figure out how the diverse text hovers (extension point
org.eclipse.cdt.ui.textHovers) can be controlled from the preference settings
(C/C++ -> Editor -> Tab Hovers)
The thing is that
even if I disable all hovers in the preferences then still the BestMatchHover
gets called. The BestMatchHover seems to go through a list of hovers in a
predefined order and just return the first string that a hover returns.
Neither in the BestMatchHover nor in the other implementations of the called
hovers (CSourceHover, CDocHover, DebuggerTextHover, AnnotationHover) have I
found any code that seems to be evaluating the preferences so all in all they
seem to be without effect.
This is a bug. Is
this a bug?
Thanks for more
information,
Norbert
