object contribution action and key shortcut ... [message #333820]

Hi all
I have got few views that displays actions in popup coming from object
contribution ...

I was wondering if it is possible to bind key to this action (for example
the delete to the delete action).

Thanks for any help
Kar

ObjectContributions can't be bound to keys.

On way to do this would be to create a command/handler combo that works
on the activeMenuSelection and the current selection if that's not
available. Then you can bind that command to a key and use
org.eclipse.ui.menus with a locationURI of
popup:org.eclipse.ui.popup.any to add it to popup menus, and the
menuContribution/command element can have a visibleWhen clause (to make
it similar to an object contribution)

Later,
