| Using F3 key with and without JDT [message #327895] |

I have written a graphical editor, and now I am wondering how I could use
the F3 key to open source files from a context menu within that editor. The
JDT is has defined this key already, so I can use their command's
definitionId when I define my action in the org.eclipse.ui.popupMenus
extension point. The problem is that my editor should be independent of the
JDT. When I try to define my own command and key to use when JDT is not
around, they collide with the JDT's definitions when JDT is there. Is there
any way I can resolve this and have my editor work with and without JDT?
Thanks, Felix

F3 is bound in the "In Window" scope to the command by JDT. This is not
a proper solution for a multilanguage IDE (it should be in Platform or
bound to Java scopes).
Felix, you have to bind your command in a more special scope for your
language, then it overwrites the binding of JDT (as example you can look
in definitions of CDT).
