RE: [cdt-dev] Marker problem

["Schorn, Markus" <Markus.Schorn@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The appearance of markers can be changed in the preferences (per marker type). I would think that you can also define the default appearence in the plugin.xml. Anyways, markers are provided by the eclipse platform, not by CDT.

Hi

I want to create markers for C/C++ resource. Here is the way I did it:

plugin.xml:

   <extension

         id="net.sf.ecut.cppunit.task"

         name="%Task.name"

         point="org.eclipse.core.resources.markers">

      <super

            type="org.eclipse.core.resources.taskmarker">

      </super>

      <persistent

            value="true">

      </persistent>

      <attribute

            name="%Task.name">

      </attribute>

   </extension>

source code:

IMarker marker = resource.createMarker("net.sf.ecut.cppunit.task"); //$NON-NLS-1$

marker.setAttribute(IMarker.PRIORITY, new Integer(IMarker.PRIORITY_NORMAL));

marker.setAttribute(IMarker.SEVERITY, IMarker.SEVERITY_INFO);

String methodName = method.getElementName();

String message = WizardMessages.getFormattedString("NewTestClassWizardPageOne.marker.message", methodName); //$NON-NLS-1$

marker.setAttribute(IMarker.MESSAGE, message);

ISourceRange markerRange = ((IFunctionDeclaration) method).getSourceRange();

marker.setAttribute(IMarker.CHAR_START, new Integer(markerRange.getStartPos()));

marker.setAttribute(IMarker.CHAR_END, new Integer(markerRange.getStartPos() + markerRange.getLength()));

The problem I have is that the marker is not visible but present when I programmatically search for them. Any suggestions what's wrong here?

Cheers 

Gerhard
