Editor Error Stripe
Stable

The Error Stripe gathers the information to show from three sources:

• (A subset of) editor annotations. See TextAPIOpenIDE Text API for more details.
• Up-to-date status providers. This is the ErrorStripeSPIpublic SPI provided by the Error Stripe. The Up-to-date status provides affects the "global" status view in the Error Stripe.
• ErrorStripePrivateSPIPrivate mark provider SPI.

Use Cases

Augment Annotations to be shown in the Error Stripe

Use the OpenIDE Text API .

Provide Up-to-date Status for the Error Stripe

A module in the IDE has information whether data shown in the Error Stripe is up-to-date or not. The Error Stripe may change the appearance according to this knowledge.

Implement the UpToDateStatusProvider that provides up-to-date status. Be sure that it fires PropertyChangeEvent when this status is changed.

Implement the UpToDateStatusProviderFactory that creates an instance of your UpToDateStatusProvider for a given JTextComponent and install it as described here.
