FocusListener vs IPartListener [message #549882]

Hello

I am making a plug-in for eclipse.

There is a command that need to know the editor active and which has the focus and if the focus change to other editor or other part of workbench.

I have seen the interface FocusListener, but I don't know as to add its to a editor.

I have seen the IPartListener too. Which interface must I use, IPartListener or FocusListener?

Thanks a lot
Jose

Focus listener is about SWT focus. But since you care about editors,
you want IPartListener2. That will tell you which part is active, and
when a new part becomes active.
