Cut/Copy/Paste [message #524612]

Hello,

I am using WidgetMethodHandler to invoke cut/copy/paste action in my RCP
app. Also I use the IFocusService to enable/disable this handler.

My Problem now is, that there is no cut/copy/paste method in lists. I
tried to create my own listWidget creating a Composite with a list on it.

WidgetMethodHandler is looking for the focused Control, and therefor it
is getting the list on my listWidget, not my listWidget. How can i tell
the WidgetMethodHandler to use my cut/copy/paste methods in my widget
instead of looking (and NOT finding) these methods in the list control ?

Thanks

Andreas

WidgetMethodHandler will only work on the focus control.

To work in your scenario you have to work similar to the *Viewers, where
the copy handler is activated against the part itself and tends to copy
out the data object that underlies the *Viewer's presentation.

Have a look at what the error log view does. For example,
org.eclipse.ui.internal.views.log.LogView.createActions().

Hello,

I tryed to do it like it is done in the LogView, but I failed....
If I click on the Action in the Views Menu, it works.
But neither the Binding to the Application's menu nor the keyboard
shortcuts are working.

I am using Handlers "org.eclipse.ui.edit.copy" to perform copy actions
(see plugin.xml).

What am I missing ?

Thanks

Andreas

View.java ==>

public void createPartControl(Composite parent) {
...
createActions();
...
}

private void createActions(){
...
System.out.println("Creating Action...");
IActionBars bars = getViewSite().getActionBars();

copyAction = createCopyAction();

bars.setGlobalActionHandler(
ActionFactory.COPY.getId(),copyAction);

bars.getMenuManager().add(copyAction);
bars.getMenuManager().update(true);
...
}

private Action createCopyAction() {
Action action = new Action("&Copy") {
public void run() {
System.out.println("Hola Chico");
};
return action;
}
<== EOF View.java

plugin.xml ==>

<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.menus">
<menuContribution
locationURI="menu:org.eclipse.ui.main.menu">
<menu
id="foo.bar.menu.edit"
label="Edit">
<command
commandId="org.eclipse.ui.edit.copy"
style="push">
</command>
</menu>
</menuContribution>
</extension>
<== EOF plugin.xml
