Re: [jdt-debug-dev] jdt launch shortcuts on non java files

[Michael Rennie <Michael_Rennie@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Ryan, 

The adapt entry is used to check if
the item you have right clicked on (the current context) can be adapted
to an IJavaElement.

As for the shortcuts, you can try adding
an enablement test for your menu shortcut to make it (not) show up in the
RunAs menu.
Enablement tests are added to your menu
shortcuts to determine when they should be present or not (in the context
of the RunAs menu any way).
There are a few 'standard' tests provided
for other plugin developers to use for their menu shortcuts. 

Try looking at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.debug.core.JavaLaunchableTester
for a description of the tests and also look at the org.eclipse.debug.ui.launchShortcuts
extension in the plugin.xml file for org.eclipse.jdt.debug.ui for an example
of how to use them.

Hope this helps.

Subject	[jdt-debug-dev] jdt launch shortcuts on non java files

Hi,

I made a new launch shortcut for files of with a .nws extension. My
launch shortcut works but all the jdt shortcuts also appear in the Run
As menu for these files even though they are not java files.

Through trial and error I figured out that if I remove this line

<adapt type="org.eclipse.jdt.core.IJavaElement"/>

from the contextualLaunch section of the jdt launch shortcuts they go
away like I want them to. I don't understand what that adapt tag is
doing.

Of course when I actually release this plugin I can't mess with the jdt
launch shortcuts. How can I make my .nws files fail the tests for the
jdt launch shortcuts so they won't appear in the Run As menu?


Thanks,
