Java Folding Structure Provider

Identifier:
org.eclipse.jdt.ui.foldingStructureProviders

Since:

Description:
Contributions to this extension point define folding structures for the Java editor. That is, they define the regions of a Java source file that can be folded away. See org.eclipse.jface.text.source.ProjectionViewer for reference.

Extensions may optionally contribute a preference block which will appear on the Java editor preference page.

  • point - a fully qualified identifier of the target extension point
  • id - an optional identifier of the extension instance
  • name - an optional name of the extension instance

  • id - the unique identifier of this provider
  • name - the name of this provider. If none is given, the id is used instead.
  • class - an implementation of org.eclipse.jdt.ui.text.folding.IJavaFoldingStructureProvider
  • preferencesClass - an implementation of org.eclipse.jdt.ui.text.folding.IJavaFoldingPreferenceBlock

Examples:
See org.eclipse.jdt.ui.text.folding.DefaultJavaFoldingStructureProvider for an example.

Supplied Implementation:
org.eclipse.jdt.ui.text.folding.DefaultJavaFoldingStructureProvider provides the default folding structure for the Java editor. org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.text.folding.DefaultJavaFoldingPreferenceBlock provides the preference block for the default structure provider.
