Eclipse plugin: Custom icon for a Marker
- by Itay
I want to specify a custom icon for a makrer. Sadly, the icon that I chose is not displayed.
Here's the relevant parts of the plugin.xml file (the project id "x"):
<extension
id="xmlProblem"
name="XML Problem"
point="org.eclipse.core.resources.markers">
<super type="org.eclipse.core.resources.problemmarker"/>
<persistent
value="true">
</persistent>
</extension>
<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.ide.markerImageProviders">
<imageprovider
markertype="x.xmlProblem"
icon="icons/marker.png"
id="xmlProblemImageProvider">
</imageprovider>
</extension>
I also tried specifying a class (implementing IMarkerImageProvider) instead of an icon, but that getImagePath() method of the class does not get called.
Any thoughts on how to make custom marker icons work?
Desperately, yours.
