Hi all,
I have defined a command that is correctly displayed in a view context menu
....

let's say this command perform a "Delete" operation ...
what is the right way to bind this with the edit/delete global action?

Thanks in advance
Kar

Hi Sharon and thanks for your help ... but I'm still lost ...
I'm using the new framework eclipse 3.3

I mean the command works fine .. but still not able to understand how to
bind it with the global action

my command performs a delete and I want this to be bound with the delete in
the edit menu ...

I found the example contribution ... and I have seen that the command id is
the same name of the used for the command itself ... in my case
org.eclipse.ui.edit.delete (but I see a disabled icon in the popup menu / as
in the edit menu)

the same bit below works fine if a change org.eclipse.ui.edit.delete in
org.eclipse.ui.edit.deletex

don't really know what to search anymore ...
thanks
kar

Hi Kar,

To manipulate the global action, you have to call
org.eclipse.ui.IActionBars.setGlobalActionHandler and set the actionId
"org.eclipse.ui.edit.delete"'s handler to your action.

Good luck!

Sharon
