Hello.

I use this code to get the active project.
but I have an error with the "activeProject" variable.
The error says - "Cannot refer to a non-final variable activeProject
inside an inner class defined in a different method"

but when I add "final" to the var, another error appear -

"The final local variable activeProject cannot be assigned, since it is
defined in an enclosing type".
Can you please help me with that.

IProject activeProject = null;
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getDisplay().syncExec(
new Runnable() {
public void run() {
IWorkbenchWindow window = PlatformUI
.getWorkbench()
.getActiveWorkbenchWindow();
if ( window != null ) {
IWorkbenchPage page = window.getActivePage();
if ( page != null ) {
IEditorPart editor = page.getActiveEditor();
if ( editor != null ) {
IEditorInput input = editor.getEditorInput();
if ( input instanceof IFileEditorInput ) {
IFileEditorInput fileInput = (IFileEditorInput) input;
activeProject = fileInput.getFile().getProject();
}
}
}
}
}
} );
