Hi, I am trying to catch a key combination and execute some code. In plugin.xml I define the command, the binding and the handler:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?eclipse version="3.4"?>
<plugin>
   <extension
         point="org.eclipse.ui.commands">
      <command
            id="it.polito.softeng.momaapp.customgmfcode.InsertPortion"
            name="InsertPortion">
       
      </command>
   </extension>
   <extension
         point="org.eclipse.ui.bindings">
      <key
            commandId="it.polito.softeng.momaapp.customgmfcode.InsertPortion"
            schemeId="org.eclipse.ui.defaultAcceleratorConfiguration"
            sequence="M1+I">
      </key>
   </extension>
   <extension
         point="org.eclipse.ui.handlers">
      <handler
            class="MyHandler"
            commandId="it.polito.softeng.momaapp.customgmfcode.InsertPortion">
      </handler>
   </extension>

</plugin>


The binding appears under the Key Binding list in my RCP application but when I press ctrl+I the rcp application freezes (no error messages are shown in the console of the Eclipse IDE where I am developing the plugins). Any ideas?

Is your handler being called? Place a breakpoint in your handler execute(*)

If it is truly frozen you can also follow steps from
http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/How_to_report_a_deadlock to find out
what your RCP/java is doing.

I tried using a JOptionPane.showMessage(...) and throwing an exception: it is not called.

Thank you for the link (http://wiki.eclipse.org/index.php/How_to_report_a_deadlock) I did not know it.

This may sound a bit silly, but did you try changing the key sequence?

Ctrl+I is already defined in
org.eclipse.ui.defaultAcceleratorConfiguration for "Correct
Indentation", and unless you declare a custom scheme, I think that
setting is overriding yours.

JOptionPane is a Swing method, and has to run in the EDT. Your handler
would be run in the SWT UI thread (which is different), and if you just
call JOptionPane from the SWT UI Thread that guarantees bad behaviour.

1) actually debug your code or
2) put a sysout to print to the console.

I don't think it overrides my binding because from the menu I can see that combination is associated with my command.

Maybe Swing doesn't work there but the exception is fired anyway... so I think I should get some reaction.
