        Validates and adapts the given selection range if it is not a valid widget selection. The widget selection is invalid if it starts or ends inside a multi-character line delimiter. If so, the selection is adapted to start after the divided line delimiter and to end before the divided line delimiter. The parameter passed in is changed in-place when being adapted. An adaptation to [-1, -1] indicates that the selection range could not be validated. Subclasses may reimplement this method.
        Parameters:
        selectionRange - selectionRange[0] is the offset, selectionRange[1] the length of the selection to validate.

        public final void setRedraw​(boolean redraw)
        Description copied from interface: ITextViewerExtension
        Enables/disables the redrawing of this text viewer. This temporarily disconnects the viewer from its underlying StyledTextwidget. While being disconnected only the viewer's selection may be changed using setSelectedRange. Any direct manipulation of the widget as well as calls to methods that change the viewer's presentation state (such as enabling the segmented view) are not allowed. When redrawing is disabled the viewer does not send out any selection or view port change notification. When redrawing is enabled again, a selection change notification is sent out for the selected range and this range is revealed causing a view port changed notification.
        Specified by:
        setRedraw in interface ITextViewerExtension
        Parameters:
        redraw - true to enable redrawing, false otherwise
