[cdt-dev] CEditor bombs in M5

["Ed Burnette" <Ed.Burnette@xxxxxxx>]

With M5 and CDT20030127 (that's the latest build I could find) I'm getting a NPE in :

It looks like createPartControl() is being called before createSourceViewer() so the decoration support is not initialized. It worked ok in M4. Before I spend a lot of time trying to debug it, has anybody else run into this problem?

I'm creating the editor page in a plug-in like this:

	IEditorRegistry registry= PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getEditorRegistry();
	IEditorDescriptor desc = registry.getDefaultEditor(fileName);
	IEditorInput input = new ExternalEditorInput(storage);
	IEditorPart editor = page.openEditor(input, desc.getId());
