Actions and SWT Buttons [message #448435]

I know how to create an RCP Action, and invoke it from
toolbars, menus, or hotkeys.

How does one invoke it from an ordinary SWT button?

You would add a listener to the button. Then invoke your Action from the
listener code. Here is some basic listener code to which you could add
the code to invoke your action:

myButton.addSelectionListener(new SelectionAdapter() {
public void widgetSelected(final SelectionEvent e) {
// ADD CODE HERE
}});

you have to call the run method of the action in the selection event of the button
