Package org.eclipse.core.filebuffers


package org.eclipse.core.filebuffers

Provides the API for accessing file buffers.

Package Specification

File buffers represent a file that is being edited. Text file buffers are specific for text files. They represent the content of a text file in form of an IDocument and and associated IAnnotationModel. File buffers are managed by a file buffer manager. The org.eclipse.core.filebuffers plug-in provides a default file buffer manager that can be obtained by calling FileBuffers.getTextFileBufferManager(). The file buffer manager supports listeners, IFileBufferListener, that are informed about all relevant state changes of file buffers as well as their creation and disposal.
