I forgot to mention that the editor contributions references the contentType id, so filename should (indirectly) apply to the editor as well. Editor associations, in general, are a bit of a mess. There is very little harmony between the old associations and content type associations. Hopefully we can address this in 3.3. |
if I create a new contentType: <extension point="org.eclipse.core.contenttype.contentTypes"> <content-type id="foobar" name="Foo Bar" file-names="FOOBAR" priority="normal"/> </extension> it is not automatically available in the File Associations preference page. For this I have to add it to an Editor contribution as well (which introduces a redundancy).
