Own editor plugin with "F3" feature [message #488891]

Hello,

I'm currently building my own editor for eclipse. In this editor I want to
use the "Open Declaration" feature.

When I try to create my own Action with "F3" as accellerator it works in
it's own way. Means, a popup is displayed and it asks which of the two "F3"
actions should be executed which is a bit annoying after a while.

I do not want to deregister the original "F3" feature to allow the user to
code java in eclipse with plugin installed. I also do not want to give a
different key to my version of "Open declaration" so the user can use his
beloved "F3" to lookup where something comes from.

Is there a way to "delegate" the "Open declaration" to a different code when
hit in my editor?

Thanks in advance :)

Your editor should provide it's own key binding scope and then you can
register your command for that scope and bind F3 to it.
