Eclipse 3.4 TextViewer
I am creating a plugin for Eclipse 3.4. I created a plug-in development project using the application with a view. Now I am trying to create a TextViewer the documentation says that it is located in org.eclipse.jface.text.TextViewer. But, this whole package is missing and eclipse cannot locate TextViewer class to import. I want to know why is this package/class missing? Also if it is really gone what took TextViewer's place?

If you don't like the manual route, have a look at the Automated Management of Dependencies feature in the manifest editor, though care should be taken with this.

Whenever it encounters this hotkey, the TextListener analyzes the word just before and then replaces it against the macro contents (via TextViewer#getDocument().replace()). This works.
Now just after replacing the macro name with its contents, I would like to place the caret to...
