<h1>
Eclipse Platform Build Notes</h1>
<h1>
Text Editor Support (including JFace Text)</h1>
<p><br>Eclipse SDK Build 20020601
<h2>
Breaking API changes</h2>
<h2>
Other highlights</h2>
<ul>
<li>
Introduced the concept of setRedraw(boolean) on text viewers. See ITextViewerExtension.setRedraw(boolean).
This allows to avoid any UI updating while manipulating the viewer's document.
While redraw == false, the viewer selection is still available, i.e. setSelectedRange
and getSelectedRange can be used and always refer to the actual state of
the viewer's document. However, no selection change event and no view port
changes are sent out. TextEvent (See ITextListener) has been extented to
carry the viewer's redraw flag.</li>
<li>
Introduced the concept of a "sequential rewrite mode" on documents.
See IDocumentExtension. This informs a document about an upcoming sequence
of non-overlapping consecutive replace commands. If capable the document
can use this information to operate on an optimized text store. In JFace
Text, Document operates on a SequentialRewriteTextStore during this period.</li>
<li>
Reworked text shifting, line delimiter conversion, and find/replace to
use the newly introduced concepts.</li>
<li>
Reworked the reactivation behavior of text hovers.</li>
<li>
Pushed text hover information computation in a background thread.</li>
<li>
Reactivated and extended the concept of widget token management. See IWidgetTokenOwner,
IWidgetTokenKeeper.</li>
<li>
Extended text operations so that they can externally be enabled/disabled.
See ITextOperationTargetExtension. Currently, this is only used for content
assist in the source viewer. All other text operations ignore the enable
flag.</li>
<li>
Improved incremental search behavior.</li>
<li>
Further code cleanup.</li>
</ul>

<h2>
Breaking API changes</h2>
<h2>
Other highlights</h2>
<ul>
<li>
The ruler context menu action are initialized correctly when invoked over
keyboard shortcut. (Ctrl+W)</li>
<li>
Added delete line actions ([Esc 0] Ctrl+K with emacs key bindings) to text
editor</li>
<li>
Added support for setting/clearing/swapping a mark (emacs style selection)</li>
<li>

<p>Eclipse SDK Build 20020514
<h2>
Breaking API changes</h2>
IVerticalRulerInfo.addMouseListener/removeMouseListener have been removed
again. The vertical ruler now provides a control that shares its listeners
with its children.
<p>IDocumentProviderExtension.getStatus(Object element) returns an IStatus
connected with the given element. The status can be used to relate any
relevant kind of status information with an element for which a provider
manages a document.
<h2>
Other highlights</h2>
Introduced a StatusTextEditor. The status text editor checks the status
flag managed for its input element by the editor' document provider. If
the status is not-OK, a different control is shown. By default an InfoForm
is shown. Subclasses can change what is shown or subclass InfoForm.
<p>StorageDocumentProvider and FileDocumentProvider honor the workbench's
encoding settings. In addition, encoding support is provided by standard
text editor. File can be viewed using different encodings. Save always
uses the workbench's encoding setting. Custom editors can leverage the
support by including the EncodingActionGroup into their menus. The encoding
support uses the newly introduced status text editor.
<p>Text hover timeout when typing has been improved. It's now always 1500ms.

<h2>
Breaking API changes</h2>
<h2>
Other highlights</h2>
<ul>
<li>
The context menu of the vertical ruler can be opened with Ctrl+W when using
the default key binding. Accelerator for the emac's key binding is still
to be defined.</li>
<li>
Added support for composite vertical ruler. See CompositeVerticalRuler.
A composite vertical ruler is configured with ruler columns. Two ruler
columns are provided by default: AnnotationRulerColumn and LineNumberRulerColumn.</li>
<li>
Performance changes to the reconciling mechanism in JFace Text.</li>
<li>
Changes in handling read only files: All modifying text actions are disabled
by default.</li>

<hr WIDTH="100%">
<br>
<p>Eclipse SDK Build 20020430
<h2>
Breaking API changes</h2>
<h2>
Other highlights</h2>
<ul>
<li>
Introduced the concepts of state dependent actions, i.e. actions which
change their enabling state depending on whether the editor's input is
read only or not.</li>
<li>
Added line delimiter conversion actions for DOS, UNIX and Mac.</li>
</ul>

<h2>
Breaking API changes</h2>
<h2>
Other highlights</h2>
<ul>
<li>
Viewport clipping in the vertical ruler</li>
<li>
Improved painting of range indicator</li>
<li>
Fixed problem in position handling in AbstractDocument</li>
<li>
Improved handling of delete in GapTextStore</li>
<li>
Changes in partition parsing: Introduced the concept of a partition token
scanner which can resume scanning in the middle of token range.
The basic assumption is that partition delimiters don't contain line delimiters.
Partition token scanners can be built with rules implementing IPredicateRule.
A predicate rule can start evaluation between their start and end sequence.
PatternRule has been adapted.</li>

<br>
<br>
<p>Eclipse SDK Build 20020409
<h2>
Breaking API changes</h2>
<h2>
Other highlights</h2>
<ul>
<li>
Added support for external contribution of ruler actions. I.e. plugins
can contribute actions to the context menu of an editor's vertical ruler
by specifying those actions in their plugin.xml file.</li>
<li>
In the default key binding Ctrl+ArrowUp and Ctrl+ArrowDown are bound to
scroll a single line without moving the cursor.</li>
<li>
AnnotationModel is be used from several threads.</li>
<li>
TextViewer implements ITextViewerExtensions which supports the stacking
of VerifyKeyListeners. A listener that is prepended to the list of verify
key listeners can take over the control over all key strokes not bound
as menu item accelerators.</li>
<li>
The scheme according to which an editor calls Workspace.validateEdit has
been reworked.</li>
<li>
The editor hooks to the Revert action in the File menu.</li>
<li>
AbstractTextEditor supports property dependent actions similar to selection
or content dependent actions.</li>
</ul>

Support for read-only but modifiable resources in editors. For this reason
AbstractTextEditor now calls validateState if its document provider also
implement IDocumentProviderExtension. The calls are issued:
<ul>
<li>
when an editor is marked dirty</li>
<li>
when an editor saves its document to its input</li>
<li>
when a dirty resource is moved (if allowed)</li>
</ul>
Calling validateState may cause changes to the isModifiable and isReadOnly
properties of the editor's input.
<br>FileDocumentProvider implements validateState by calling IWorkspace.validateEdit
on the input file.

<ul>
<li>
An BasicTextEditorActionContributor now contributes three status fields
into the window's status line. Each field is dedicated to show information
of a particular category. The categories are defined in ITextEditorActionConstants.
A new interface ITextEditorExtension has been introduced. On activation,
implementing editors of this interface are informed about the status fields
they can use to publish status information. AbstractTextEditor implements
ITextEditorExtension. Subclasses of AbstractTextEditor can get access to
the editor's current status fields using the method getStatusField(String
category). By default, AbstractTextEditor publishes the following information:
cursor position, input mode, reade only state of its input. Subclasses
may change this behavior by overriding updateStatusField(String category)
or callers of this method.</li>
<li>
The default text editor uses the feature described above and now provides
status information.</li>

<br> interface: IHoverInfoPresenter
<br> change: removed interface
<br> change type: breaking API change for implementers of IHoverInfoPresenter
<h2>
Other highlights</h2>
For more information about the following issue please see JavaDoc of the
classes
<ul>
<li>
Complete rework of hover popups (previously a package private mechanism
hidden from clients). There is now the concept of an IInformationControl
and an IInformationControlCreator. Everywhere where floating windows are
used to present some kind of information, now IInformationControl is used.
More precise, the according component is equiped with an IInformationControlCreator
and creates the IInformationControl instance when needed. So clients can
set an IInformationControlCreator on a TextViewer and a SourceViewer. They
use it to create the text hover window and the annotation bar hover
window respectively. DefaultInformationControl is a StyledText-based
default implementation of IInformationControl. Clients may implement IInformationControl
directly and inject their custom information control creator.</li>
<li>
AbstractInformationControlManager and its subclasses abstractly implement
the process of providing a SWT control with support for floating information
windows. This covers layout, positioning, content, and visibility of the
floating window. They offer a broad customization space such as layout
strategies, colors, etc.</li>
<li>
TextViewer hovers, annotation bar hovers, additional info on completion
proposals in the content assistant, etc. benefit from the new infrastructure.
UI improvements are especially visible in the layout behavior.</li>
<li>
Introduced the concept of an information presenter. An information presenter
shows information on a context derivved subject on request. See IInformationPresenter
for details as well as SourceViewer and SourceViewerConfiguration for how
to use it.</li>
