org.eclipse.ui.commands defaultHandler isA? [message #328597]

Tue, 27 May 2008 21:20

Eclipse User

The doc for the extension point org.eclipse.ui.commands, has:

defaultHandler -

The default handler for this command (see the org.eclipse.ui.bindings
extension point). If no other handler is active, this handler will be
active. This handler will conflict with other handler definitions that
specify no activeWhen conditions. If you are creating an
IExecutableExtension, you can use the defaultHandler element instead.

But what kind of value does it want? A class name? ID for some other
markup? Something else altogether?

Thanks,
John.

That should be an org.eclipse.core.commands.IHandler or preferably a
subclass of org.eclipse.core.commands.AbstractHandler
