How can I make Eclipse open files in itself rather than using the system editor, with language-specific syntax highlighting?
-
I'm using Eclipse 3.5.2 on Ubuntu for some Java projects- however, when I click a file in left navigator pane it opens in systen text editor(gedit) instead of Eclipse built in editor. It opens in Eclipse if I drag-and-drop, but then Java syntax is not highlighted.

Answer:
This is controlled in Preferences→General→Editors→File Associations. Nominate the built-in editor plugin for Java for .java files. Eclipse remembers the editor last used for a file, so you may need to use the right-click menu on a file to choose the desired editor, if you've already opened it with the wrong editor.
