Capabilities and Key Bindings [message #485167]

Hello.

I'm wondering if Eclipse capabilities should also disable keybindings ?

I'm using Platform 3.4.2 with Subversive 0.7.8 plugin. I disable the "SVN
capability" provided by the subversive plugin, and all the UI
contributions disappear (views, perspectives, menu contributions, new
wizards, ...)
BUT the keybindings are still active !!

In the Project Explorer view, the CTRL-ALT-Z keys execute the "SVN update"
command.
And in the "Keys" preference page, the "Subversive key bindings scheme" is
available ...

I would like to have the SVN key bindings disabled, is it the capability
responsibility or should I use contexts to obtain this result ?

Thank for your help.
JM.D

You are correct, activities/capabilities (which can hide elements in the UI) do not effect key bindings.

Are you trying to disable the key bindings in an RCP app? Or you mean in the IDE/SDK?

Hello Paul and thank you for your help.

I'm trying to disable the SVN key bindings contributed by the Subversive
plugin that I have integrated in an RCP application built upon Eclipse
Platform ...

I'm not totally in the IDE (only Platform SDK) but not really in a full
RCP app (without easy access to advisors).
Today, I will try to disable these key bindings with the "Binding Service"
of the workbench. Is this the right way ?

Thank you.

I've succeeded in disabling all the SVN key bindings with the Binding
Service, by getting the SVN Scheme by its ID (defined in the Subversive
plugin) and setting it to "undefined". I do that in an "early startup"
plugin of mine.

It seams to work. Hope it will be robust enough ...

that's likely to blow up at some point, or at least generate a lot of messages in your log file (<workspace>/.metadata/.log)

If the keybindings are in a SVN scheme, why isn't setting RCP app scheme to the default good enough (the SVN keybindings won't work unless their scheme or some child scheme is active).
