Subject: [platform-ui-dev] default editor
I cannot find any way to register an editor with a weighting factor.
Our plugins are normally shipped with other plugins which are responsible
for supplying appropriate editors. However, it looks like there will be
(at least) one product that our plugins will be included in that does not
have these editors. So we want to include a basic editor which has
minimal
support (ability to add / remove breakpoints and show the breakpoint
icon),
but don't want it to end up as the default editor for the file extension
type unless no other editor is registered for that file extension type.
From some trial and error it appears to me that the first time eclipse is
started up the editors for a particular file extension are added in
alphabetical order (of the plugin id that the editor is declared in), and
then the first one in the list is the default.
Instead of doing it alphabetically, it would be better if we could
register
our editor with a relative priority. This would allow our editor to be
used only if there are no others.
