Revision Annotation

Hello,
If I implement an editor and want to be able to show revision annotations
when the user selects "Annotate" in the context menu, is there any extension
points I need to use? Thanks.

I believe the annotate support is hard coded to work with implementors
of ITextEditorExtension4. If your editor (or a page in your multi-page
editor) implements that interface, annotations should work. Most editors
that show annotations are subclasses of AbstractDecoratedTExtEditor.

Thank you Mike,
Jazz revision annotation seems to work with both ITextEditorExtension4 implementor and AbstractDecoratedTextEditor subclass. However, I saw one difference: If using AbstractDecoratedTextEditor, you can see the "annotate" action in the context-menu of the editor.
Do you know if there are any other differences? Again, thank you.

Whether or not the "annotate" action shows up in the context-menu of the
editor depends on whether the editor input adapts to IResource I believe.
