Hello All,
I am trying to develop a plugin for eclipse where the major requirement is to have a UI and as the user go on clicking the UI element (Like text box, checkbox ) , in the background a file will get written . I am completely unaware of eclipse plugin development. Can anybody please give me some starting pointer to achieve the this ? Any white paper, link will greatly be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Samir

Thanks Manisha,
But the link which you send does not have the example which I am talking about. Can you please give me some pointer to the example which actually write into the file on every user click
Thanks

Thanks Manisha,

Who is Manisha? Last time I checked I was a male.

So you want ready made code which you can adapt with minor changes?
