Hi,
I'm interested in writing a eclipse based rich text editor that's backed
by a wiki markup.
I'm currently 'hiding' the wiki markup characters when editing the
document using a glyph hack that makes a zero width glyph out of the
wiki markup characters, while giving users the feel of a rich text editor.
What we'd really like is being able to strip out the wiki markup when
the file is loaded, and be able to put the wiki markup back in (by
looking at the styled range) when the file is saved.
We've looked at FileBuffers#getTextFileBufferManager() and it seems this
would help us solve this issue, the problem is that most of this
infrastructure is internal (not to mention static and final), and
therefore not subclassable for our use case.
Ideally we'd like an extension point at
FileBuffersPlugin#getFileBufferManager, but again the interface that's
returned by this method is internal :(
Does anyone have any recommendations on how this could be done better ?
Cheers,
Ketan Padegaonkar
