1. Start fresh workspace
2. create Java project
3. create class Test
4. use a commands with Text editor or Java editor scope
==> they don't work

Examples:
Comment - Ctrl + /
Incremental Find - Ctrl + j

Note: Ctrl + j works in the text editor.

Comment 3 Chris McLaren CLA 2003-08-26 12:01:01 EDT 
fixed. the issue was that scopes (which are being phased out with the new 'contexts' api) currently no longer *automatically* follow the scope inheritance tree. i.e. java editor scope does not necessarily imply text editor scope. there is a use case (in debug) where we might need this. or we might not. (it is a case of A1 and A2 are children of A, and we'd like to set the contexts in the following order { A1, A2, A }. automatic inheritance would mean { A1, A, A2, A })

one fix would be to change the last line of of constructor to JavaEditor to:setKeyBindingScopes(new String[] { "org.eclipse.jdt.ui.javaEditorScope", "org.eclipse.ui.textEditorScope" });  //$NON-NLS-1$

i have added some temporary code to ensure contexts automatically imply their ancestors.
