Automatically Select All [message #216012]

Hello,

i'm writing a plugin with an editor using GEF. I also added an Entry to
the Eclipse menubar which is visible when my editor is active. The menu
should contain an entry called "Delete All" which should (as the name
implies ;) ) delete the whole content of the editor. My question is: How
can i automatically select the whole content that the editor displays and
how can i invoke the right edit policies afterwards?
Or is there an easier way to achieve this?

Thanks in advance for your help.

regards,
Thomas

you can use the default SelectAllAction. I don't have my code here, but if
you have other problems with it write me!
