howto handle double click in commonnavigator view [message #326059]

Hi,

I've got a CommonNavigator view with my own content provider and I'm
wondering how I should handle opening files I have in my tree via
double-clicking? Those files are not IFile instances so it doesn't work out
of the box and I'm a bit lost how to tell the navigator view to simply open
an editor for them...

You will need to not use the navigator's default open handler, and then
add a double click listener directly to the viewer associated with the
navigator:

CommonViewer viewer = navigator.getCommonViewer();
viewer.addDoubleClickListener(<your listener>);

For your plugin.xml, do something like this to avoid getting the open
handler (this also does not pick up the new handler as well):

<extension
id="com.oaklandsw.transform.rcpViewer"
point="org.eclipse.ui.navigator.viewer">
<viewerActionBinding
viewerId="com.oaklandsw.gui.navigator">
<includes>
<actionExtension pattern="com.oaklandsw.gui.*" />
<actionExtension pattern="com.oaklandsw.transform.*" />

<actionExtension
pattern="org.eclipse.ui.navigator.resources.EditActions" />
<actionExtension
