Description Justin Kong CLA 2010-06-04 15:39:54 EDT
Build Identifier: 3.6

In our product, we have a property page that contains a code snippet editor with content assist. To achieve this, we're currently using the JDISourceViewer and a number of other internal JDT classes. We would like to have an API that would give us access to an editor with content assist, so that we don't have to go through these internal classes. 

The API provided by the JavaBreakpointConditionEditor isn't ideal for our case, as importing it into our property page also includes the condition and suspend buttons. Since we only want the JDISourceViewer with content assist, this forces us to remove the buttons and the dependencies that the JDISourceViewer had on those buttons, which is fairly messy.

Reproducible: Always
