RE: [cdt-dev] Overrite "Show Tooltip Description (F2)" in CDT editors

["Leherbauer, Anton" <Anton.Leherbauer@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Deniz,
 
to override the default F2 hover action for an editor is to call 

   setAction(ITextEditorActionConstants.SHOW_INFORMATION, yourAction)

You would need to do this for every C/C++ editor instance that gets
opened.

Another possibility (requires CDT 5.x) is to contribute the API
documentation to the org.eclipse.cdt.ui.CHelpProvider or
org.eclipse.cdt.ui.HelpInfo extension points. The default F2 information
presenter will display the provided documentation in the same way as the
Documentation hover.
