Re: [platform-text-dev] Formatting tosses annotations/markers

[Scott Fairbrother <scottf@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Kai,

In 2.1 the formatting strategy simply
returned a formatted string.  Would like to see this functionality
remain.  Assuming that bug 63723 is fixed, and the IFormattingStrategy.format(String,
boolean,String, int[])  method is called, will the method  be
deprecated?   


Thanks,

You replace the complete content of the document. Thus, all positions of
the annotations get deleted. Correct behavior.

Has anyone had problems losing annotations after setting or replacing IDocument
text?  The use case I'm having problems with is in content formatting.
 I grab the formatting context on formattingStart and then get the
document text, from the context.  I format the string in the keyWordsToUpper
method and then set the document text.  This all seems to work, the
doc is dirty and view is updated however all markers and annotations are
lost.   

 /*

  * 
  * @see org.eclipse.jface.text.formatter.IFormattingStrategyExtension#format()
  */ 
 public void format() { 
   IDocument document = (IDocument) sqlFormattingContext
       .getProperty(FormattingContextProperties.CONTEXT_MEDIUM);
   if (document != null) 
     document.set(keyWordsToUpper(document.get()));
 }
