[1.9] opening .json

[NEG2013]

in eclipse when i click to open a json file it opens in notepad not in the eclipse text editor and if the file is one of minecrafts json it will not let me open it at all

Its been a while since I used Eclipse but

 

Goto: Window > Preferences > General > Editors > File Associations

Click: *.json

Set 'Json Tools Editor' to default

 

I cant remember if I need to add it, can remember if I needed to install it either

For using Eclipse text editor for JSON files: Right click JSON file -> Open With -> Text Editor

 

You can indeed not open Minecraft's assets in the workspace, you'd have to open the actual Minecraft JAR outside of Eclipse.

It used to let me open minecraft's .json files until it started opening in notepad
