Re: [platform-team-dev] Re: Trouble with org.eclipse.compare.contentView

Is there anything in your log file? Your contentMergeViewer definition seems to be using unqualified class names. Do you really have a class in the default package of your plug-in? Another possibility is that "rtf" is being detected as a text content type which may be overriding your extension based definition. You may want to create your own content type for rtf files and associate the viewer with it.

Hello,

I am using Eclipse 3.2.

I am trying to create a new plug in for comparing
files. The intention is to compare two files without
the need to merge them. Based on the research I did my
plug-in had to use the
org.eclipse.compare.contentViewers extension point.

I wrote my plug-in and it is being loaded however the
creator method is not being invoked. Also compare
class which I wrote is not being accessed at all.
Eclipse keeps using its built-in compare/mergeeditor.

What I need to know is whether I was suppose to
register my comparison class with a class/registry
other than the plug in registry?

Below is a copy of my plugin.xml file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?eclipse version="3.2"?>
<plugin>
   <extension point="org.eclipse.ui.startup">
    <startup class="RTFCompareActivator" />
   </extension>
   <extension
        point="org.eclipse.compare.contentViewers">
    <viewer id="RTFCompare"
        class="RTFCompareCreator"
         extensions="rtf"
        />
   </extension>
</plugin>


Thanks in advance.
