I associated the .ext extension with
Oxygen XML Author plugin
in Eclipse. Why does an
.ext file opened with the
Oxygen XML Author plugin
plugin not have syntax
highlight?
Associating an extension with
Oxygen XML Author plugin
in Eclipse 3.7+
requires three steps:
-
Associate the .ext extension with the
Oxygen XML Author plugin
plugin.
-
Go to menu .
-
Add *.ext to the list of file types.
-
Select *.ext in the list by clicking on it.
-
Add
Oxygen XML Author plugin
to the list of Associated
editors and make it the default editor.
-
Associate the .ext extension with the Oxygen
XML content type.
-
Go to menu .
-
Add *.ext to the File associations list
for the content type.
-
Press the OK button in the Eclipse preferences dialog.
Now when an *.ext file is opened the icon of the editor and the
syntax highlight should be the same as for XML files opened with the
Oxygen XML Author plugin
plugin.
