Description Dani Megert CLA 2003-11-11 03:56:31 EST 
N20031111

Start fresh workspace and create a type in a new Java project.
Close the Java editor
Select the file, Open With > Text editor
Close the text editor
Double-click the file
==> opens in Java editor. Before RCP it used to remember which editor was used.
Comment 1 Nick Edgar CLA 2003-11-11 22:25:12 EST 
Fixed in >I20031111, by adding a call to IDE.setDefaultEditor(file, editorId) 
in OpenWithMenu.openEditor.

This is not ideal though.  The old code used to just call page.openEditor(file, 
editorId).  The equivalent post-RCP call should be IDE.openEditor(page, file, 
editorId) but there is no such API currently.

Should have 1-to-1 equivalents for the old openEditor methods on IDE, including 
the openEditor(IEditorInput, ...) variants to handle the special case for 
IFileEditorInput.

This is fixed.
Filed bug 46818 for the openEditor API problems.
