根据Eclipse RCP中选择的视图激活上下文

Question

I want to activate a context based on the view selected to add shortcut to a specific view. I did the following.

• Created Keybinding
• Added Command Handler
• Created Context

But I am not sure how to activate the contact using plugin configuration.

Answer 1

To have a different command 'handler' active for different views use the 'activeWhen' element in the `org.eclipse.ui.handlers' definition.

Something like:

<extension
     point="org.eclipse.ui.handlers">
  <handler
        class="view1.View1Handler"
        commandId="command.id">
     <activeWhen>
       <with
           variable="activePartId">
          <equals
              value="view1.id">
          </equals>
       </with>
     </activeWhen>
  </handler>

define a different handler for the command for each view.
