[platform-text-dev] Unable to get hold of ISourceViewer

["Syed Rizvi" <sma_r@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I am trying to get hold of the viewer through ISourceViewer by using the 
following code but can't get it to work and always get a null value for 
view.

ISourceViewer viewer = getSourceViwer();

Actually I am using the JavaEditor example,there I am calling the following 
method through a messageDialog.What happens is that I frist open up a .java 
based file and call the following method after pressing one of the button on 
the Dialog.If the ButtonID is the correct one then this method is called.I 
have used the above code in the XMLEditor by calling createPartControl but 
in the case of javaEditor this method doesn't get called for some reason.I 
would really apprecaite if some one can help me on this.

public void setEditable(boolean editable) {
  ISourceViewer viewer = getSourceViewer();
  if (viewer != null) {
      viewer.setEditable(editable);
  }
}

Thanks

Syed Rizvi
