Hello,
A draft document covering selection in editors in M9 is ready for
review. One of the most visible cues of good integration between editors
and views is coordinated selection: the selected Java method in the Java
Outline view should reflect the caret position in the Java Editor, the
HTML Property Sheet should show properties for the DOM Element selected in
the HTML Outline view, and the selected objects on a mutli-page editor's
Design page should always be the same as on its Source page, etc. Rather
than introduce and maintain our own mechanisms for achieving this, the SSE
StructuredTextEditor now exposes its selection handling using standard
Eclipse platform APIs.
The draft document can be found here:
http://eclipse.org/webtools/wst/components/sse/designs/EditorSelection.html
and from the SSE component Overview page here:
http://eclipse.org/webtools/wst/components/sse/overview.html
Comments, suggestions? Please add them to bug 109441
