First of all, this works on eclipse 3.3.0. I haven't tried the codes on the other versions of eclipse.
import java.io.File;
import org.eclipse.core.filesystem.EFS;
import org.eclipse.core.filesystem.IFileStore;
import org.eclipse.ui.PartInitException;
import org.eclipse.ui.IWorkbenchPage;
import org.eclipse.ui.PlatformUI;
import org.eclipse.ui.ide.IDE;
File fileToOpen = new File( textField.getText() );
if ( fileToOpen.exists() && fileToOpen.isFile() )
{
IFileStore fileStore = EFS.getLocalFileSystem().getStore( fileToOpen.toURI() );
IWorkbenchPage page = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActivePage();
try
{
IDE.openEditorOnFileStore( page, fileStore );
}
catch ( PartInitException e )
{
//Create your error handler codes here
}
}
else
{
//You may do something if the file is not a file and the file does not exist
}
