Hello,

I am migrating an old RCP application (initially based on Eclipse 3.4) to Neon (4.6.3)
Iam using the compatibility layer.
The key bindings of my actions are not working anymore
I have a custom scheme.
Here is the plugin.xml:
<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.bindings">
<scheme
id="foo.KeyConfiguration"
name="FooKeyConfiguration"
parentId="org.eclipse.ui.defaultAcceleratorConfiguration"/>
<key
commandId="foo.action.file.OpenDocumentAction"
contextId="org.eclipse.ui.contexts.window"
schemeId="foo.KeyConfiguration"
sequence="M1+O">
</key>
...
when changing the schemeId of the binding to "org.eclipse.ui.defaultAcceleratorConfiguration", it works again, except for the conflicts with default bindings.

Am I missing something ?

Thanks in advance !

Cheers

Guilhaume

Stupid question, but you're sure you've actually enabled the scheme, right? If you're using the Keys preference page, then put a breakpoint in org.eclipse.ui.internal.keys.KeysPreferencePage.selectedComboScheme() and start tracing through.

Internally, keybinding schemes are set BindingManager#setScheme().

Thanks a lot for your reply, it lead me to the solution: my custom scheme was not taken into account
I already had a preferences.ini file with
org.eclipse.ui/KEY_CONFIGURATION_ID=foo.KeyConfiguration
but there was missing the following property defined on the product in my plugin.xml:
<property
name="preferenceCustomization"
value="preferences.ini">
</property>
Thanks again !!
