What are the HintManager changes in 8.0?

Hello Janusz,

We have been using this voodoo magic in IDEA 7.0 to make some hints
appear:

+HintManager.getInstance().showEditorHint(lightweightHint, anEditor,
point,+
+HintManager.HIDE_BY_ANY_KEY | HintManager.HIDE_BY_TEXT_CHANGE |
HintManager.HIDE_BY_OTHER_HINT | HintManager.HIDE_BY_SCROLLING, -1,
false);+
The code above does not compile on Diana build.
What would be an equivalent replacement code for 8.0?

Cast the return value of HintManager.getInstance() to HintManagerImpl.

Note that HintManager is now in OpenAPI, and you can probably find a simpler
and more official API to do what you need (see showErrorHint() and showInformationHint()).
