public abstract class SelectionProviderAction

Action
- implements
ISelectionChangedListener
The abstract superclass for actions that listen to selection changes
from a particular selection provider. This implementation splits the current
selection along structured/unstructured lines, providing a convenient place
to monitor selection changes that require adjusting action state.
Subclasses must implement the following IAction method:
-
run - to do the action's work
Subclasses may reimplement either of the following methods:
-
selectionChanged(IStructuredSelection)
-
selectionChanged(ISelection)
