Getting Tab File Location [message #512381]

Hi,

I have a GMF RCP editor running. In my applicatino there can be multiple tabs for different files which I can switch between (each tab will say the name of the file and if I hover over it I can see the file location).

I've set up a SWT interface that, when opened, reads in the file location of what ever tab is active.

How might I do that?

Thanks,

F

(Not sure if this is a RCP issue, please point me to the correct location if I'm in the wrong place)

Hi Fred,

You can create a selection listener that places the currently active file
into some static field of a well know class. Then your SWT thing can pick it
up when it gets activated. Also you can ask the workbench for the current
active selection.
