Inside an eclipse plugin, I'd like to open a file in editor. I know the full package and class name, how can I determine the path of the java file from this?
Take a look at IJavaProject.findType( name ) method. Once you have an IType, you can use getPath() or getResource() methods to locate the file. This method searches across a project and everything visible from that project. To search the whole workspace, iterate through all the Java projects in the workspace, calling the findType() method on each in turn.
