[jdt-ui-dev] Add, extend visual parts of jdt
|
Hi
as a part of my master thesis I\'d like to add, change or extend
various visual components of the jdt.
For example I have various new metrics which I\'d like to integrate
into the current source view of JDT.
One idea was to add additional annotations to the OverviewRuler, or to
add a separate OverviewRuler containing these annotations.
Another idea is to add some of my metrics to the hover part of a class
(so extending the current javadoc view)
I have done some research on how I could achieve these extensions the
easiest way and as fair as I can tell now that there aren\'t really
points where I could plugin my changes into.
As far as I have seen one option would be to get my changes into the
model used for the visualizations? How can I do that easily?
So I assume I have to do the changes within the different jdt plugin
parts or is it possible to extend the current view with an own plugin?
How would I do this, is there any documentation available how the
different parts within jdt are connected together?
thanks a lot and cheers
Marcel
