I need to disable ALL rcp key-bindings.

I only use the Workbench basic capabilities (views and not much more).

Tried to build a "target platform" but there are too many plugins to choose from.

On a first approach i just disable extensions and need to disable ALL the keys.

thanks.

This sounds to me as if you are working against the framework. What is
the actual problem you are trying to solve? Why should you need to
disable key-bindings? Since years we have a successfully running RCP
application which is completely customized to our needs, but we never
needed to disable the key-bindings - there is simply nothing that is
activated unexpectedly. Maybe you should simply perform a better
selection of the plugins that you reuse from Eclipse? Not everything is
probably useful for you.

We need that some RCP components we do not use cannot be accessed by the user.

So, do you advise the creation of a "target platform"?

I asked some questions first ;-) and cannot advice anything before
understanding the problem. I don't understand why you suddenly switch to
the discussion of a target platform. Sure, a target platform is useful,
but it is not directly related to your original question.

Ctrl-Shift-L, Ctrl-Shift-R, Ctrl-N... and many more.

These shortcuts give access to things we don't want to.
(Open resource, Internal rcp Preferences...)

We export only the plugins the build needs, but these resources are present.

Thanks.
