key unbinding does not work? [message #1064742] Thu, 20 June 2013 18:37 Go to next message

Hi!

I've just downloaded newest Eclipse classic on Linux and installed CDT. I would like to unbind default F5 behavior (Refresh) and bind as F5 the Debug command. I went to Settings and Keys, there I found Refresh, removed the binding (changed to Alt+R), then found Debug and assigned F5. This does not work.

Now when I press F5 I see some menu on the right-down part of screen to select command Refresh or Debug... I searched for Refresh but the binding is not selected in the Settings screen. I tried even to export the CSV keybindings but I can't find duplicate F5 there.

Could you please explain how to properly unbind a command in Eclipse Juno? Thank you.

It's a bug, related to this one, which has been fixed for Kepler:
Bug 387728 - [KeyBindings] Changing the keybindings to Emacs+ unstable

One possible workaround is to:

1) shut down eclipse

2) make a backup of
..metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.e4.workbench/workbench.xmi and delete the
file

3) restart eclipse and reposition your views/perspectives

That should cause the key bindings to be regenerated

Later,
PW

Thanks for the info. It's true, Ctrl+B still works as Build but I changed it to F7.
