Custom error highlighting

Well, it is not currently possible using OpenAPI (unless you do all the work
yourself). But we're planning an extention here.

Hi all,

I'm writing plugin which scans the current file and detects
application-specific errors (e.g. a badly formed i18n log token). I
would like to highlight these errors in the same way IDEA highlights
Java syntax errors.

So far, I've figured out how to add the red wavy underscore using
RangeHighlighter, but I can't figure out how to associate an error
message with the highlight so that it appears in the IDEA statusbar and
as a tooltip.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks,
Gordon

That's good news. I created a RFE:
