Interface IdeEditorPositionConverter

public interface IdeEditorPositionConverter

Provides the forward and reverse conversion from the file offset to TextPosition object.

The methods of this interfaces are very useful when you are working with text editor - its
position-related methods operate with the TextPosition objects, while RWI properties like
START_POSITION or
DEFINITION_START_POSITION
contain the offset values.

For example:

import com.togethersoft.openapi.rwi.RwiProperty;

import com.togethersoft.openapi.ide.editor.IdeEditor;

import com.togethersoft.openapi.ide.editor.IdeEditorManager;

import com.togethersoft.openapi.ide.editor.IdeEditorManagerAccess;

import com.togethersoft.openapi.ide.editor.IdeEditorVisibleArea;

...

IdeEditorManager editorManager = IdeEditorManagerAccess.getEditorManager();

int startOffset = Integer.parseInt(someRwiElement.getProperty(RwiProperty.START_POSITION));

TextPosition textPos = editor.getPositionConverter().offsetToCell(startOffset);

IdeEditorVisibleArea viewArea = editor.getVisibleArea();

viewArea.setFirstColumn(textPos.getColumn());

viewArea.setFirstLine(textPos.getLine());
