binding to mouse input [message #765699] Wed, 14 December 2011 09:46 Go to next message

The article on org.eclipse.ui.bindings says that these bindings map between "some user input and a triggered command". However, I see that all user input is reduced to keyboard. It is like there is not mouse in Eclipse universe. Nevertheless, I know that Eclipse jumps to declaration when Left button is clicked while Control is pressed. How do I do the same?

A response from paulweb515: Quote:
you can't.

The best you can get in the latest eclipse is the left and right mouse buttons on 5-button mice are bound to ALT+LEFT and ALT+RIGHT


I have achieved the goal by 

textWidget.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {

	OpenDeclarationAction openDeclaration = new OpenDeclarationAction();
			
	public void mouseDown(MouseEvent e) {
		if (e.stateMask == SWT.CTRL && e.button == 1)
			openDeclaration.run(null);
	}

});


Yet, there seems is even better option: hyperlink detectors
