Dear All:
I thought I could write an Eclipse plug-in to alter my theme automatically for GNOME Darklooks.
I made a simple test:
/**
*
*/
package org.misha680.darklooks.actions;
import org.eclipse.jface.resource.ColorRegistry;
import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.RGB;
import org.eclipse.ui.IStartup;
import org.eclipse.ui.PlatformUI;
import org.eclipse.ui.themes.ITheme;
/**
* @author misha
*
*/
public class Startup implements IStartup {
/*
* (non-Javadoc)
*
* @see org.eclipse.ui.IStartup#earlyStartup()
*/
@Override
public void earlyStartup() {
ColorRegistry cr = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getThemeManager()
.getCurrentTheme().getColorRegistry();
for (Object obj : cr.getKeySet()) {
String key = (String) obj;
cr.put(key, new RGB(0,0,0));
}
}
}
That uses the org.eclipse.ui.startup extension.
This has the desired effect on all colors under General -> Appearance -> Colors and Fonts, but not on other colors, such as under Java -> Editor -> Syntax Coloring (I am on Eclipse 3.6, amd64 on Ubuntu 10.04 and I am referring to Window -> Preferences).
Any hints how one could access colors defined by Java -> Editor -> Syntax Coloring, and perhaps others from an Eclipse plug-in?
Thank you
Sincerely yours Misha
