========== Eclipse Build Input February 7th 2006 ==========
- added selectionChanged event to ICompletionListener
- added start/stopListeningForPreferenceChanges to TemplateStore to enable automatic preference store listening
- bug fixing
========== Eclipse Build Input January 17th 2006 ==========
- deprecated TextViewer::getVisibleLinesInViewport as it won't work with variable line heights
- bug fixing
========== Eclipse Build Input January 10th 2006 ==========
- Move of the content assist API additions from the various text plug-ins to jdt.ui:
- reason:
- the collection-based API of ICompletionProposalComputer has no future in the RCP part of eclipse.
- it is only currently used in jdt to allow contributions to the Java editor's content assistant
- removed the unused ContentAssistInvocationContext
- moved TextContentAssistInvocationContext to jdt.ui
- moved ICompletionProposalComputer to IJavaCompletionProposalComputer in the jdt.ui plug-in.
- changed HippieProposalComputer to HippieProposalProcessor, now implementing IContentAssistProcessor instead of ICompletionProposalComputer
- Changes in document setup and creation:
1) the extension point 'org.eclipse.core.filebuffers.documentCreation' is now
deprecated and urges clients to get rid of it along with hints how to do this
2) along with 1) 'org.eclipse.core.filebuffers.IDocumentFactory' is deprecated
3) the file buffer manager now provides an 'org.eclipse.jface.text.ISynchronizable'
document. Clients which need a synchronized document can set a lock object.
Note: To overwrite an existing lock object is considered bad practice and can
break other clients: if the document already has a lock object set then
this one should be used by the client.
4) a warning is now written to the .log file if a document setup participant
sets the default partitioner and the extension point documentation has been
clarified.
5) all PartiallySynchronizedDocument implementations can be removed
