Eclipse IDE UI
There is a newer version: 3.22.400




      
         
      
      
         Allows to override editor associations for the IDE to resolve conflicting contributions.
<p>
There are many ways to find editors for a given input and to open an editor. This extension point will only work for those cases where the request was done via <code>org.eclipse.ui.ide.IDE</code> or where the client code explicitly honors this extension point by calling one of the override methods in <code>org.eclipse.ui.ide.IDE</code>. Main intent is to allow intercepting how editors are opened via the IDE UI like <b>Open</b>, <b>Open With</b> and <b>Open Resource</b>. This extension point does not affect the Compare editors.
</p>

<p>
<strong>Note:</strong> This extension point should only be used in cases where a product gets assembled with conflicting editor contribtions and where there is no other way to resolve those conflicts. In case you simply want to bind an existing editor to a content-type, consider using <em>org.eclipse.ui.editors/editorContentTypeBinding</em> instead.
