Hello,
I have a requirement to be able to open a source file that is not a member
of the workspace (not managed by the workspace). The file is read as a
part of initialization of my internal model and I would like to give the
user the opportunity to review the customizations contained therein.
Thanks, Bob

How do you want to open it? In an editor, a view, a dialog? It makes a
difference.

Bob,
I want to open it into an Editor.
Since I sent this email, I did some research into the eclipse source and
found that if I subclass IStorageEditorInput, I might be able to get this
to work. Basically I plan to use IStorageEditorInput as a wrapper to an
java.io.File so that I can display it in an Editor.
Since I only want the user to view the file and not edit it, I will have
to turn the editing off. But I still want the file to use the syntax
coloring, outline, etc available for the file extension.

Bob,
Ideally I would like to take a java.io.File and "register" it in Eclipse
as an IFile so that I can take advantage of aspects of using an IFile.
Is this possible?

I wrote a plugin that does something like this; see the Fileopen plugin at
www.eclipsepowered.org (open source on sourceforge). Since you don't want to
save the file it's even easier, see the sample code posted for
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=2869 . Basically it's the same
idea used by the CVS plugin to view source code on an arbitrary revision, so
that's another place to look. HTH.
