[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-13297) Prevent from associating xml files to Android xml editor

[Viacheslav Kabanovich (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-13297?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12939929#comment-12939929 ] 

Viacheslav Kabanovich commented on JBIDE-13297:
-----------------------------------------------

Another solution:
Declare new content type for file extension 'xml'.
Register it for the Android nature.
Register it for the editor, without specifying extension for the editor.

In this case, the editor will appear only on the projects with Android nature. However, the side effect is that for these projects all xml files will have only new content type, so that all other editors will not recognize it and will not appear in 'Open With...' at all.

So, there is choice between
1. Content descriptor, that cannot recognize all kinds of ADT xml files,, unless some namespace will be provided for them.
2. Separate ADT projects, so that all xml files in them can be opened _only_ by ADT's  Common XML editor, while in other projects it will not interfere.

> After installing the Android Development Tools into JBDS/JBT all xml files gets associated to Android Common Xml Editor, even pom.xml files which we used to open with the Maven POM Editor. This issue was discussed with Burr Sutter on Face2Face that it should be fixed.
