Re: Extending LPEX: is an outline view possible?

[adrian <stori@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The LPEX Editor provide you access to getAdapter() in its 
Lpex[*]TextEditor classes (see documentation for package 
com.ibm.lpex.alef), so you could use it for your parser in an LPEX-based 
editor plug-in.

However, for access to i5 sources, you must indeed extend WDSC-specific 
code, in which I'm not an expert.
