Description:

Contributions to this extension point define folding structures for the C/C++ editor. That is, they define the regions of a C/C++ source file that can be folded away. See org.eclipse.jface.text.source.ProjectionViewer for reference.

Extensions may optionally contribute a preference block which will appear on the C/C++ editor preference page.
