Examples of ITextHover

org.eclipse.jface.text.ITextHover

Computes the information to be shown in a hover popup which appears on top of the text viewer's text widget when a hover event occurs. If the text hover does not provide information no hover popup is shown. Any implementer of this interface must be capable of operating in a non-UI thread.

In order to provide backward compatibility for clients of ITextHover, extension interfaces are used as a means of evolution. The following extension interfaces exist:

{@link org.eclipse.jface.text.ITextHoverExtension} since version 3.0allowing a text hover to provide a creator for the hover control. This allows for sophisticated hovers in a way that information computed by the hover can be displayed in the best possible form.
{@link org.eclipse.jface.text.ITextHoverExtension2} since version 3.4allowing a text hover to return hover-specific information objects.

Clients may implement this interface.
