What is the standard way of setting key bindings for SourceViewer [message #1797942]

Hello, I'm writing this message from Japan.

I'm currently devloping a desktop application which uses only JFace + SWT.
And I created the editor class which uses org.eclipse.jface.text.source.SourceViewer.

I'm not developing with eclipse RCP or eclipse plugins.
JFace+SWT jar libraries were fetched from eclipse's plugin directory.

Here is my question.
What is the standard way of setting key bindings of org.eclipse.jface.text.source.SourceViewer.

I could find some sites witch explains about key bindings of eclipse RCP or eclipse plugin, but could not find the explanation of standalone application which only uses SWT+JFace.

I tried org.eclipse.jface.action.Action.setAccelerator but didn't work (may be it's deprecated ? or am I using it wrong? ).

I am now using VerifyKeyListener of styledText to set key bindings.
Is there any right way to do this?

Thank you very much in advance.
