Key Binding confilicts in 3.4 [message #330492]

I am having a key-binding conflict for an editor, which I developed, in
Eclipse 3.4. The same code is working properly in the previous versions of
eclipse.

When I debugged, I found that all the contexts available are getting
activated for the editor in 3.4 while in earlier versions, only
org.eclipse.ui.contexts.dialogAndWindow, org.eclipse.ui.contexts.window
are activated. I am not setting any context explicitly for the editor.

Since now all the contexts are active the Ctrl+s binding is getting bound
to text editor, which is used as a control in the editor, instead of the
editor itself.

Is there any change in 3.4 or am I doing anything wrong.

Any inputs will be really appreciated.

CTRL+S is always been save (in the default scheme) AFAIK. There is
better error reporting in 3.4 that might be adding to your log.

Normally if an editor wants to use keybindings (especially ones that can
be used in the rest of eclipse) they create their own context (usually
parented off of "org.eclipse.ui.contexts.window" ) and assign their
keybindings there. That's what TextEditor and JavaEditor do, check out
AbstractTextEditor for an example.
