Get workbench's toolbar [message #331461]

Hi everybody,
I'm desperately trying to get the toolbar of the Eclipse Window. I
defined an extension of type action to org.eclipse.ui.actionSets and now
I'm trying to access the corresponding toolbar entry to disable it.

How can this be done?

Thanks a lot

Joerg

You can't really get the workbench toolbar that way (you could use SWT
hackery, but the workbench will overwrite your changes the first chance
it gets).

If you are using actionSets, the correct way to enabled/disable your
IAction is in org.eclipse.ui.IActionDelegate.selectionChanged(IAction,
ISelection)

action.setEnabled(false) will disable it.
