| Provides a framework for text editors obeying to the |
| desktop rules. |
| <h2> |
| Package Specification</h2> |
| <tt>ITextEditor</tt> extends <tt>IEditorPart</tt> with text editor specific |
| functionality. Text editors use source viewers (<tt>ISourceViewer</tt>) |
| for displaying and editing the given editor input. In order to translate |
| the editor input into a document and vice versa (e.g., for saving a change), |
| a text editor uses document providers (<tt>IDocumentProvider</tt>). A document |
| provider is responsible not just for providing the document for a given |
| editor input but for the complete translation between the domain model |
| and the editor's internal document-based model. Document provider can be |
| shared between editors. |
| <br>The package provides a default implementation of <tt>ITextEditor</tt> |
| (<tt>AbstractTextEditor</tt>). This default implementation also covers |
| the editor's complete action management and activation. The package contains |
| a number of configurable and predefined actions. <tt>AbstractMarkerAnnotationModel</tt> |
| establishs a link between text annotations (<tt>Annotation</tt>) and desktop |
| markers (<tt>IMarker</tt>). |
