[RCP] Ctrl+S for Save not working [message #250483]

In my RCP app's WorkbenchAdvisor subclass I add the Save menu item like
this:
menu.add(ActionFactory.SAVE.create(window));

So I get a Save menu item with a disk icon next to it and a displayed
shortcut of Ctrl+S. The menu item enables and disables properly when
editors are dirtied and saves the editor when you select it with the mouse.

However, pressing Ctrl+S does not run the save action. How can I get
the shortcut to work?

I'm using 3.0 RC1.

Thanks,
David

Could you running with some debugging options, and then open a bug
describing the problem in detail (preferrably with sample code showing the
problem)?

You would need to create a file some on disk called "options". In it put
the following 4 lines:

org.eclipse.ui/debug=true
org.eclipse.ui/trace/contexts=true
org.eclipse.ui/trace/keyBindings=true
org.eclipse.ui/trace/keyBindings.verbose=true

Then, open a command prompt and run Eclipse. Start Eclipse with the
following additional parameter:

-debug C:\path\to\options

Then recreate the problem (preferrably without pressing any keys except for
the "Ctrl+S"). Include the output from the command prompt.

thanks,
d.
