Build Identifier: 20110916-0149 I am a developer and I always add two hot keys to Skip All Breakpoints and Remove All Breakpoints commands. I use it a lot and think it could help others if the original JDT comes with these hot keys. I use Ctrl + Alt + S to Skip all and Ctrl + Alt + R to Remove All. They aren't binding in original JDT. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add Ctrl + Alt + S to Skip All Breakpoints command 2. Add Ctrl + Alt + R to Remove All Breakpoints command 3. Use it. :) Sorry, as this is a simple enhancement suggestion, I dont know what exactly to put here.
Personally I don't see much value in this if the user can already define one.
(In reply to comment #1) > Personally I don't see much value in this if the user can already define one. Same here.
It's worth noting that we've added the skip-all action to the main toolbar (bug 264485). It's part of a larger change to the debug toolbar, so if it sticks, it should help this use case.
Closing wontfix, you can set a keybinding on the 'Keys' preference page if you really want to, but I also see no value in having one by default.
Predefined shortcuts should be reserved for often-used commands. "Remove All Breakpoints" is not used that often, so I don't think we should assign a shortcut. But "Skip All Breakpoints" is used often. I use it even more than "Toggle Breakpoint", and I can't work efficiently without assigning a shortcut. We should use Ctrl+Alt+B for "Skip All Breakpoints". This shortcut is still free in eclipse-jee-mars-M5-win32-x86_64, and it's a nice complement to the already assigned Ctrl+Shift+B for "Toggle Breakpoints".

Fixed with http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.debug.git/commit/?id=87bf3db976790862ceb9b321661e0234afb342ca The commit also makes sure the "Skip All Breakpoints" button in the Breakpoints view shows the command's shortcut in the tooltip.
Just for curiosity about '"Remove All Breakpoints" is not used that often'. Do you guys collect data about usage? I'm asking because I always add the two shortcuts and during programming I use those often and I actually use more the "Remove All". I am glad you finally add a predefined shortcut, but I a little bit disappointed because the "Remove All" won't be included. Anyway, keep up with the great Eclipse job and tanks for add the shortcut.
