org.eclipse.ui
Interface IPersistableEditor

All Superinterfaces:
IPersistable
All Known Implementing Classes:

public interface IPersistableEditor
extends IPersistable

An editor can implement this interface and participate in the workbench session save/restore cycle using IMemento, similar to how IViewPart currently works.

Refer to IWorkbenchPart for the part lifecycle.

If a memento is available, restoreState(*) will be inserted into the editor startup.

  1. editor.init(site, input)
  2. editor.restoreState(memento)
  3. editor.createPartControl(parent)
  4. ...

On workbench shutdown, the editor state will be persisted when the editor references are saved.

Since:
