[pdt-dev] org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui.semanticHighlighting extension

[Robert Gründler <r.gruendler@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi again,

i tried to follow the Wiki entry to add SemanticHighlighting to my 
plugin for
PHP Annotations:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/PDT/Dev2Dev/Semantic

by adding an extension point like this:

<extension
       point="org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui.semanticHighlighting">
<highlighting
          
class="org.eclipse.symfony.ui.editor.highlighting.AnnotationHighlighting"
          target="org.eclipse.php.core.phpsource">
</highlighting>
</extension>

I'm getting a ClassNotFoundException during startup for 
org.eclipse.symfony.ui.editor.highlighting.AnnotationHighlighting,
although my plugin is exporting the necessary packages.

According to the eclipse irc channel, the way the SemanticHighlighting 
extensions are loaded by the PDT plugin will only work for internal 
pdt-bundle classes (in SemanticHighlightingManager line 71).

Is this a bug in PDT or am i just not providing the extension point 
correctly?

thanks!
