Hi,

Hope someone could advise me on the above issue.
I have written a pop-up menu using MenuManager.
For example, MenuItems are "Save" and "Cancel"
I would like to program using a timer to set a selection on one of
the menu items (for example, Save in this case), so that a save operation
is done at certain time intervals.

Please advise how (preferably with some java coding) on how to set the
selection to that particular menu item.

I have written a simple method. viewer in this case, is a Tree Viewer.
I am not sure what/how to pass in the selection parameter, in this case to
set the selection to Save MenuItem.

Pls advise, thanks.
Sally


//Set by the timer in certain time intervals to set Save MenuItem
public void setSelection(IStructuredSelection selection) {
if ((viewer != null) && (viewer.getSelection() == null)) {
viewer.setSelection(selection);
}
}

Sally,

This newsgroup is for discussion the operations of the Eclipse
organization itself. Please use the platform or newcomers newsgroup for
questions like this. (You're question totally confuses me. I don't
understand how the menu item is related to a selection in a viewer.)
