/**
* In addition to the text viewer functionality a source viewer supports:
*
* - visual annotations based on an annotation model
*
- visual range indication
*
- management of text viewer add-ons
*
- explicit configuration
*
* It is assumed that range indication and visual annotations are shown inside
* the same presentation area. There are no assumptions about whether this area
* is different from the viewer's text widget.
*
* As the visibility of visual annotations can dynamically be changed, it is
* assumed that the annotation presentation area can dynamically be hidden if it
* is different from the text widget.
*
* In order to provide backward compatibility for clients of
* ISourceViewer
, extension interfaces are used as a means of
* evolution. The following extension interfaces exist:
*
* - {@link org.eclipse.jface.text.source.ISourceViewerExtension} since version 2.1
* introducing the concept of an annotation overview.
* - {@link org.eclipse.jface.text.source.ISourceViewerExtension2} since version 3.0
* allowing source viewers to roll back a previously performed configuration and
* allows access to the viewer's visual annotation model.
* - {@link org.eclipse.jface.text.source.ISourceViewerExtension3} since version 3.2
* introducing the concept of a quick assist assistant and providing access
* to the quick assist invocation context as well as the current annotation hover.
* - {@link org.eclipse.jface.text.source.ISourceViewerExtension4} since version 3.4
* introducing API to access a minimal set of content assistant APIs.
*
*
* Clients may implement this interface and its extension interfaces or use the
* default implementation provided by
* {@link org.eclipse.jface.text.source.SourceViewer}.
