Standard SWT Menu Icons [message #465965]

I was just wondering if there is any way to use the standard SWT menu
icons. In particular I would like to get ahold of the "Delete" menu icon
that appears on the pop up menu you get from right clicking in the Package
Explorer in Eclipse.

ISharedImages sharedImages = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getSharedImages();

setImageDescriptor(sharedImages.getImageDescriptor(ISharedIm ages.IMG_TOOL_DELETE));

setDisabledImageDescriptor(sharedImages.getImageDescriptor(I SharedImages.IMG_TOOL_DELETE_DISABLED));

If you're trying to use these icons in a stand alone app not based on the RCP, you'll have to dig for the pngs in the Eclipse plugins subdirectory. Anyone know where those are?

oh yeah, sorry about that :)

you can pull the delete icon and others out of the org.eclipse.ui jar
file (delete is in subdir: /icons/full/etool16/)

there is a lot of repetition with plugins containing the same icons, and
then there's the one you'll search 100 plugins to find... it would be
nice if there was a more organized / uniform approach to this across all
eclipse projects... maybe there is and I've missed it?
