Hi, What is a good way to get the location of current selection in packageExplorer? The selection instance returned is always TreeSelection. But how to get path from the TreeSelection. I am using the following ugly way, which sometimes work & sometimes does not?

I researched a lot on net, but didn't find any good solution.

		IPath path = null;
		try{
			
			Object element = ((TreeSelection) selection). getFirstElement();
			if (element instanceof JavaProject) {
				path = ((JavaProject) element).getPath();

			} else if (element instanceof PackageFragmentRoot) {
				path = ((PackageFragmentRoot) element).getPath();
			} else if (element instanceof PackageFragment) {
				path = ((PackageFragment) element).getPath();
			}
			return path.toString();
		}
