Re: [platform-dev] editor in RCP app not working

[Nick Edgar <Nick_Edgar@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Andreas,

Please post such questions to the org.eclipse.platform or 
org.eclipse.platform.rcp newsgroups.
http://eclipse.org/newsgroups/index.html

>From the mailing lists sign-up page:
"Technical questions and discussions about using eclipse and eclipse-based 
tools, and developing plug-in tools should be posted to the newsgroups. 
Mailing lists at eclipse.org are intended for use by developers actually 
working on or otherwise contributing to day-to-day development. The 
development mailing lists are the way design and implementation issues are 
discussed and decisions voted on by the committers. "

For this one, you should also indicate how you're trying to open the 
editor.  Are you explicitly calling IWorkbenchPage.openEditor(...), or are 
you expecting it to show up in one of the navigator views?  What kind of 
input does it expect, etc.

Thanks,
Nick

[platform-dev] editor in RCP app not working






Hi,

if this isn't the right list for the question, please feel free to direct 
me
to the proper mailing list.

I created a very basic RCP application with 3 views and wanted to create 
an
editor for it now. So I added a new extension to the plugin.xml havin 
class
and id point to the class for the edior and gave a name. contributors is
filled with org.eclipse.ui.part.EditorActionBarContributor, as I don't 
need
that now.

Then i created the class as subclass of FormEditor (I want to display such
forms) and created a FormPage subclass to display a label and a text 
field.
But it seems that the code for my Editor is never run, so question is: 
What
have I forgotten to do.

I'm new to Eclipse and RCP programming and a little bit lost on where to
look for any errors (I do see some errors from classes in
org.eclipse.update.ui but they don't seem to be related to my problem)

Thanks,

Andreas

PS: parts of my soruces:
