I'm using the toolbarAction extension point to add actions to the GenericEditor's toolbar, and have two problems:

1) I would like the enablement of the actions to be dynamic, based on the selection, but the ISelectionProvider does not support registering listeners. The ISelectionProvider is an inner class of GenericEditor that throws UnsupportedOperationException for the add and remove methods for ISelectionChangeListeners.

2) Some of my actions change the model, but even if they do, the editor does not become dirty. I guess this is because the change is not performed by a command on the command stack. To do this, the action needs access to the IEditingDomain, but how can it? The toolbarAction only gets a reference to the ResourceSet and the ISelectionProvider.

Hi Hallvard,

sorry for the late answer. Could you kindly report both things as Bug Reports as you already did for the other short comings you have identified? Please set me on CC...

Thanks and best regards,

Jonas
