Below is my code up to, but seems can get the information I want:


Lookup.Result<HighlightsLayerFactory> factories = lookup.lookup(new Lookup.Template<HighlightsLayerFactory>(HighlightsLayerFactory.class));

Lookup.Template is deprecated: http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/javadoc/org-openide-util-lookup/org/openide/util/Lookup.Template.html
Lookup.Template (Lookup API) - NetBeans<http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/javadoc/org-openide-util-lookup/org/openide/util/Lookup.Template.html>

Collection<? extends HighlightsLayerFactory> all = factories.allInstances();

HashMap<String, HighlightsLayer> layers = new HashMap<String, HighlightsLayer>();

Iterator it = layers.entrySet().iterator();

while (it.hasNext()) {

Map.Entry pair = (Map.Entry) it.next();

ModuleLib.log(pair.getKey() + " = " + pair.getValue());

}


Thanks for helping

I doubt anyone can help you -- not sure what it is you're talking about. Are you talking about the Output window? Or an editor? Which editor?


And why -- what is the use case you're trying to address?
