IEditorActionDelegate problem [message #157228]

Folks,
I've read my books and Googled the Internet, but can't solve a seemingly
simple problem. I'm adding an IEditorActionDelegate to my RCP application
and testing it. When the editor is opened, the entries appear on the
menubar and toolbar as they should but when clicked I get an error dialog
"The chosen action is not currently available". Also, none of the
println() test lines appear in the console. Here is the
IEditorActionDelegate class code:

import org.eclipse.jface.action.IAction;
import org.eclipse.jface.viewers.ISelection;
import org.eclipse.ui.IEditorActionDelegate;
import org.eclipse.ui.IEditorPart;
import org.eclipse.ui.actions.ActionDelegate;

class DbFilterActionDelegate extends ActionDelegate implements
IEditorActionDelegate {

private IEditorPart editor;

public DbFilterActionDelegate() {
}

public void setActiveEditor(IAction action, IEditorPart editor) {
this.editor = editor;
System.out.println("Responded to active editor change");
// TODO Auto-generated method stub

}

public void run(IAction action) {
System.out.println("Responded to run");
// TODO Auto-generated method stub

}

public void selectionChanged(IAction action, ISelection selection) {
System.out.println("Responded to selection change");
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}

}

Here is the snippet from plugin.xml:

<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.editorActions">
<editorContribution
id="mschmidt.akamai.dbeditor.actions"
targetID="mschmidt.akamai.dbeditors.AuxEditor">
<menu
id="mschmidt.komo.menubar.dbeditorActions"
label="D&B Tasks"
path="additions">
<groupMarker name="editorActionGroup"/>
</menu>
<action
id="mschmidt.akamai.dbeditors.actions.filter"
label="&Filter"
icon="icons/filter.gif"

menubarPath="mschmidt.komo.menubar.dbeditorActions/editorActionGroup "
style="push"
toolbarPath="Normal/additions"
tooltip="Filter the table view"
class="mschmidt.akamai.dbeditors.DbFilterActionDelegate"
definitionId="mschmidt.akamai.dbeditors.actions.filter"/>
</editorContribution>

</extension>

It is my understanding that I don't need an EditorActionContributor nor
any special code in the EditorPart itself. Where am I going wrong?
Thanks!

Folks,
Unfortunately, nobody responded. In continuing to work on the problem I
looked at the runtime log. The IEditorActionDelegate class needs to be
public. As I suspected, a simple oversight.

Hi,

if u r getting the error that the "choosen operation....." then you can
check the class path from the xml file and wheere u implemened the
IEditorAcitonDelegate class, delete the metadata folder and try once
again..
might be this will help you.
