Hello,
I'm developping a RCP application.
My application mange undo/redo cut/copy paste in my editors/views. everything is ok.
Now, I would like to manage these actions in some of my wizards.

I have a wizard with a TreeViewer.
I've added popup menu and key listeners to manage the cut/copy/paste and the undo/redo operations.
I have a problem for the undo/redo shortcuts: they are not detected by my key listener.

Here is my code:

mComputationTreeViewer.getControl().addKeyListener(new KeyListener() {
	@Override
	public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) {}
	@Override
	public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {
		if((e.keyCode == 'c') && (e.stateMask == SWT.CTRL)) {
                       mCopyAction.run();
                }else if((e.keyCode == 'v') && (e.stateMask == SWT.CTRL)) {
                       mPasteAction.run();
                }else if((e.keyCode == 'z') && (e.stateMask == SWT.CTRL)) {
                       // Never call, WHY ????
                       mUndoAction.run();
                }else if((e.keyCode == 'y') && (e.stateMask == SWT.CTRL)) {
                       // Never call, WHY ????
                       mRedoAction.run();
                }
}});


If somebody has any suggestion...

Thank you.
Regards,

Philippe B.

PS: I'm working on Eclipse 3.5

Eclipse RCP uses the keybinding system along with commands and handlers.
undo and redo are bound to commands in the dialogAndWindows context,
which means they're eaten by the keybinding system before they'll get to
your wizard.

You can activate and then deactivate handlers for the undo and redo
commands in your wizard.

Hello Paul,
Thank you for your explanation.
So i found a previous post where your explain how to activate/deactivate a handler:
http://www.eclipsezone.com/eclipse/forums/t75054.html

Here is my code in my wizard:

// Handler activation
IHandlerService service = (IHandlerService) PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getService(IHandlerService.class);
AbstractHandler handler = new AbstractHandler() {
			@Override
			public Object execute(ExecutionEvent event) throws ExecutionException {
				mUndoAction.run();
				return null;
			}
};
IHandlerActivation handlerActivation = service.activateHandler("org.eclipse.ui.edit.undo", handler, new ActiveShellExpression(getShell()));





// Handler deactivation
service.deactivateHdanler(handlerActivation);
handlerActivation.getHandler().dispose(); 


Thank you very much.
Regards,
Philippe B.
