Try to overload the "eventLoopIdle" function of "WorkbenchAdvisor".

Thanks Uwe, but how I can catch any key typing or mouse moving ?
I try display.addListener(...) and shell.addListener(...), but
system doesn't notify this listeners

The "eventLoopIdle" function will be called after clearing all events from
the event queue like keyboard and mouse events. So you can implicitly
remember the last user action.
A second timer based thread has to check this remembered time against your
interval.

- you can listen for a keystroke/mouse move globally with
Display.addFilter(...)
- you can define a runnable that is to be run after xxx seconds have passed
with Display.timerExec(...)

Forget my solution.
We have tried to evaluate the interval between the "eventLoopIdle" function
to determine user inactivity.
But this is very empirical.
Try Grants solution in the side thread.
I think it's what I am was looking for too.

Thanks
Grant
