How to disable Caret Blinking?

Question

Hi, I have created an Eclipse Editor (extends EditorPart) containing an TextViewer. I would like to disable the Caret blinking (I want an Caret allways visible)? How can i do?

Answer 1

Google showed me: http://www.gatorspit.com/tips/disable-blinking-cursor.html

However, it removes the blinking carets from ALL of your applications [which includes eclipse], so you probably won't want that ._. Unless.. you totally abhor blinking carets

Answer 2

As mentioned in this thread:

Yes, if you OS supports it you can set it there (in the OS)
and the editor will honor it if you disable the custom caret on the General > Editors > Text Editors > Accessibility preference page.
