SourceViewer cut/copy/paste/selectAll integration with RCP application [message #990191]

Hi,

i have an RCP application and i have registered CUT/COPY/PASTE/SELECT_ALL actions and they work fine.. but if i add a sourceviewer in any of my view then text actions are not connected with CUT/COPY/PASTE/SELECT_ALL action in menu. I can use cut,copy and paste works using short cut keys(i.e. ctrl+c)in source view but select all (ctrl + a) does not work. I want to connect all text actions with menu items.

Same is the case if i add any view already available in eclipse like any Console view. Cut, copy and paste works only with shortcut keys(not connected to menu) and select all does not work at all.

Any idea?

Cheers,

You need to connect the actions with the menu items. Take a look at
org.eclipse.ui.texteditor.BasicTextEditorActionContributor to see how
the textual editors do it.

For selecting all content org.eclipse.ui.edit.selectAll is responsible. If you want then you can look into org.eclipse.ui.views.markers.internal.SelectAllMarkersHandler which is handler for this command.
