[news.eclipse.platform.swt] [Howto] [jface] open an editor from within a

["Paul T. Keyser" <rolarenfan@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

R2.0.2, Win2K

One can open an editor with the following code, where _site is an
IWorkbenchPartSite (ViewSite or EditorSite) and _ifile is a valid IFile
known to Eclipse.

        final IWorkbenchPage page =
_site.getWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage();
        try {
            if (page != null) {
                page.openEditor(_ifile);
            }

        } catch (PartInitException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

Since Wizards have no (access to any) IWorkbenchPartSite, is it possible
as one of the effects of a Wizard to open an editor?  If not, what is
the theoretical reason, if any, for not allowing that?
