I'm gonna look like a freakin' genius here because I still
have some breakpoints from my travels through AbstractTextEditor.
Look near line 777 of IDEWorkbenchAdvisor.updateTitle(IWorkbenchWindow).
I found this by reasoning that Shell.setText() produces that title and
setting a breakpoint in that function. When I ran Vex or the Text Editor
and renamed a file using the Eclipse menu Action for Rename, the code
hit that breakpoint.
That does NOT solve my problem but my Vex behavior complies with the
Text Editor, so I'm happy and figure it's a framework bug.
One could decide whether this IS an Eclipse bug by looking at a few
other editors, like the Plugin Editor and the Java Editor. When I
get around to checking that out, I will report the problem.

If you have the budget or are handy to a Barnes and Noble,
Chapters or equivalent, check in "The Java Developers
Guide to Eclipse". The 1st edition doesn't quite have the
details I needed for this and the sample index from the book
indicates there have been changes. I am in St John's
Newfoundland and the Java section of the local bookstore
is a bit thin.

Hi,
Thanks for your advice.
I don't know what is the best thing to do now.
1. Is it possible to make a plug-in Editor which will implement a new getTitle()
returning the location path instead of file name. I'm particular only interested
in the C/C++ editor class.
IWorkbenchPage currentPage = window.getActivePage();
if (currentPage != null) {
IEditorPart editor = currentPage.getActiveEditor();
if (editor != null) {
String editorTitle = editor.getTitle(); <-----
title = IDEWorkbenchMessages
.format(
"WorkbenchWindow.shellTitle", new Object[] { editorTitle, title }); //$NON-NLS-1$
}
2. Second solution maybe is a new version of CDT C/C++ package which has another
getTitle().
3. Third solution is a hook function in the correct position catching an event
which could trigger a function which will set the tittle.
My approach may be odd and that is due to I'm normally not 100% occupied with Java.
C and C++ is my main target normally. That doesn't mean I'm against Java, it is a
pretty nice language.
/Thanks
Java
