Description
Add a function to programmatically split an editor area, dedicated for example to:
- open an edition below a concordance editor on double clicking on a table row
- open a concordance below a progression on double clicking on a chart point
- etc.
It's not possible to do that in Eclipse 3.x without simulate a fake drag and drop event.
It's possible to do that in 4.x using MPart but not EditorPart.
Solution 1¶
Simulate a fake drag and drop event and give it to org.eclipse.ui.internal.SplitHandler.
Solution 2¶
Use MPart, MPartStack, etc.
It's possible to get a MPart 4.x from an EditorPart 3.x using compatibility layer like this:
MPart part = (MPart) editor.getSite().getService(MPart.class);
