Overwrite default keybindings [message #1061625]

Hi,
when I define my own keybindings according to http://www.vogella.com/articles/EclipseRCP/article.html#keybindingsthey do not overwrite the default ones. If I for example create a Ctrl+A keybinding and press it, a small yellow window pops up which lets me decide between my keybinding and the default one.

All solutions that I found were for eclipse 3.XX (for example http://eclipsesource.com/blogs/2008/07/18/tip-suppressing-keybindings/)

Hi,

I just remove the original KeyBindings in my code by iterating over the contexts:

for (MBindingTable table : app.getBindingTables()) {
			List<MKeyBinding> toRemove = new ArrayList<>();
			for (MKeyBinding binding : table.getBindings()) {
				if (binding.getKeySequence().equals("CTRL+A")
						&& (binding.getElementId() == null || !binding
								.getElementId().contains("overwrite"))) {
					toRemove.add(binding);
				}
			}
			table.getBindings().removeAll(toRemove);
		}

Maybe this isn't the best approach, but it works for me Smile

This yellow window still pops up. I removed all the bindings with elementId == null, so that just my bindings remain, but nothing changes.
It's like the binding context is not being updated.

Ah sorry, I changed the code a little because I thought I needed it differently. Your code works fine! Thanks!!!!!!!
Just for completion (if you want to remove more than one binding):
This does not work:

		for (MBindingTable table : app.getBindingTables()) {
			List<MKeyBinding> toRemove = new ArrayList<>();			
			for (MKeyBinding binding : table.getBindings()) {
				if (binding.getKeySequence().equals("CTRL+A")
						&& (binding.getElementId() == null || !binding
								.getElementId().contains("overwrite"))) {
					toRemove.add(binding);
				}
				else if (binding.getKeySequence().equals("CTRL+Z")
						&& (binding.getElementId() == null || !binding
						.getElementId().contains("overwrite"))) {
					toRemove.add(binding);
				}
			}
			table.getBindings().removeAll(toRemove);
		}

this does:

for (MBindingTable table : app.getBindingTables()) {
			List<MKeyBinding> toRemove = new ArrayList<>();			
			for (MKeyBinding binding : table.getBindings()) {
				if (binding.getKeySequence().equals("CTRL+A")
						&& (binding.getElementId() == null || !binding
								.getElementId().contains("overwrite"))) {
					toRemove.add(binding);
				}
			}
			table.getBindings().removeAll(toRemove);
			
			for (MKeyBinding binding : table.getBindings()) {
				if (binding.getKeySequence().equals("CTRL+Z")
						&& (binding.getElementId() == null || !binding
								.getElementId().contains("overwrite"))) {
					toRemove.add(binding);
				}
			}
			table.getBindings().removeAll(toRemove);
		}
