Eclipse Plugin

I want the editor to open a source code. I only have one string(java.lang.String). How do I do that?

CodePudding user response：

If you mean you want to open the class file editor for the java.lang.String class (which will open the source if it can be found). You would do something like:

IProject project = ... java project you are interested in

// Get the JavaModel project
IJavaProject javaProject = JavaCore.create(project);

// Find the String type using the classpath defined in the project
IType stringType = javaProject.findType("java.lang.String");

// Find the class file
IJavaElement classFile = stringType.getAncestor(IJavaElement.CLASS_FILE);

// Open the editor
JavaUI.openInEditor(classFile);
