Look in the Help -> Platform Plugin Developers Guide -> Programmer's
Guide -> Editors
I did have a look at this section in the Eclipse Help but I still cannot
find out what my problem is.
So let me explain in more detail:
I have implemented a graphical editor using GMF, this plugin is used
withing the Eclipse IDE. What I know want is to establish an RCP that
builds up on that plugin. I know that I can generate an RCP App with GMF
but as the editor was customized a lot I prefer having the code for the
editor only once. And the graphical editor will be used as plugin for an
IDE and as RCP App.
With the example of the genereted RCP of GMF I'm now trying to establish
my own.
Up to now I have:
* A menu item New -> XYZ Diagram, which creates a new diagram and shows
the editor as expected
* A menu item Open..., which opens an existing diagram in the file system
Problems with the Navigator:
* Double clicking on any file doesn't have any effect (I expect the
project file to be opened in a Text editor for example)
* Enabling the linking between the navigator and the open editors doesn't
have any effect either
So what am I missing? It seems that my editor is integrated as it shoud as
I can create/open a file and the editor is shown.
Or maybe another question (sorry I'm new to RCP) how can I add that "open
on double click action" to a simple view that extends ViewPart?
