I have the following situation. I have an editor where an object in a view
is opened for editing. The user makes some changes to the object, and then
decides to close the editor. At closing, he is asked whether to save the
object and if the user chooses No, I need to determine this. When the user
answers Yes, the workbench invokes doSave() at which point the object can
be saved. But when the user answers No, I need to find this out so I can
reload the object (since it is dirty and the user has indicated that he
does not want to keep the changes).
I looked around but could not find anything of relevance.
Thanks in advance

This is exactly my issue. I have something other than the editor using the
same content, and if the user refused the save offer, I need to know that
to reload the resource from disk.

If you can find the editor, you can find the page it's in.
IWorkbenchPage.addPartListener(). Your listener will tell you when the
editor closes.

Yes I did find that after digging through the newsgroup. However, I am now
looking for way to request user confirmation for the closing of an editor,
and abort the closure if the user refuses. Would you know how I can do
this?

As far as I know you can't do that. (And it would be pretty strange if
you did.)
