Hi All,

I extended org.eclipse.ui.popupMenus but I want to know how I can
determine the object over which the user has clicked (in my case it is
file) and how I can determine if the file was saved after last
modifications in it.

Thank in advanced

Fred

You should receive a selectionChanged callback on your IActionDelegate.
This should enable you to determine the object over which the user has
clicked.

The only way to find pending changes (that I know of) is from getting at an
instance of ISaveablePart somehow -- usually by reaching out for an editor.
I don't know of a quick way of finding an editor corresponding to an IFile,
but it should be possible using the methods on IWorkbenchPage.

cheers,
d.
