JESS: Developing a new Eclipse plugin (editor) that extends the Jess plugin

[Kim K.C.]

Hi,
      I want to create a new plugin editor (PREditor) that builds on 
top of or extends the functionality of the existing Jess plugin. The 
reason for this is to provide seamless communication between my program 
and PREditor. When the program notifies EditorA to open a Jess rules 
file, PREditor then opens the file using the Jess plugin. Similarly, 
when the file is saved in Eclipse, PREditornotifies the program of the 
new changes.

     I have created an editor plugin that extends the JessEditor class:
public class PREditor extends JessEditor
      but that fails, and Eclipse reports the following error:
Unable to instantiate editor: TestPageEditor.PREditor 
org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException: Plug-in 
pact.plugin.TestPageEditor was unable to load class PREditor.

      Any advice or pointers to articles that help to demistify on how 
to build a new plugin on top of an existing plugin?

      Thanks.
Cheers,
Kim K.C.
