How to trap the Save Event? [message #96392]

Eclipse User

Hi,

I would like to add some functionality to my java class when i try to save
the file. In order to do that i need to trap the save event of Eclipse
IDE. I tried to use a class extending org.eclipse.ui.internal.SaveAction
and in the run method i try to perform some action. Then i try to set the
gloabalActionHandler as my class. Even on doing this i dont get my action
being fired.
Plz provide good suggestions to me.

cheers

Is your "java class" an Editor? If so, you can just override the doSave
method.

Apologies if that isn't your situation.
