[platform-ui-dev] Annotation for problemMarkers

[Ram Mohan <ram.mohan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am developing an editor for a new language. 
I am able
to mark the errors on the vertical ruler properly but i wasn't able to
annotate them(when mose moves over these markers) with error messages.

I have added both extensions "annotationTypes and markerAnnotationSpecification" and mapped them to markertype.
But, I couldn't see any annotation when i move the cursor over the error marker.

I couldn't find any example and tutorial on how annotations can be added for markers.

It appears to me that i need to add some MarkerListener to SourceViewerConfiguration. 
am i correct? Any pointers in this regard would be very helpful.

Regards,
Ram
