Need to add a menu item to the "open with" sub menu of the pop up menu that arise when we right click in the resource navigator view. I don't want to do it programatically. I want to set it through plugin.xml. I hope one way to do it is to use the editor extension point and associate the particular extension with our editor. But I have problem in doing so, I want my editor to come for all files irrespective of extension, further my editor should not be the default editor for the files that has already been associated with some other editor. A good example I can give is text editor.We can open any file with the text editor using "open with" options in the popup menu but the text editor won't be the default editor for the files that has some other editor assigned as default editor.
I need to know how the text editor plug-in is able to act as default editor for the file that has no editor associated with it. What is the technical procedure that goes with text editor. If text editor plug-in is able to it then what is the secret formula that they are following to do this. Please explain in details MorPheus
