Method Detail

selectionChanged

void selectionChanged(
IWorkbenchPart part,
                      
ISelection selection)

Notifies this listener that the selection has changed.

This method is called when the selection changes from one to a non-null value, but not when the selection changes to null. If there is a requirement to be notified in the latter scenario, implement INullSelectionListener. The event will be posted through this method.

Parameters:: part - the workbench part containing the selection; selection - the current selection. This may be null if INullSelectionListener is implemented.
