Currently, I want to programatically open a compare editor on two IFile objects, At the moment, I do the something like the following: CompareAction compareAction = new CompareAction(); ... StructuredSelection filesToCompare = new StructuredSelection(new Object[] {ifile1, ifile2}); compareAction.selectionChanged(this, filesToCompare); compareAction.run(...); However, the CompareAction is internal API. I want a way to invoke the compare editor on two files without using internal API.
Adding this API should be easy once bug 193321 and bug 193324 are addressed
I'm afraid I won't make it in 3.4 M7, which is in fact the last iteration for 3.4. Thus I'm moving it to 3.5.
We haven't investigated the issue during 3.5 and we don't plan to address it now. I'm removing the target milestone but we'll set more realistic one when we have feedback from anyone interested in fixing this.
