3.0 RC2 After talking with Michael we decided to fix bug 65955 by adding the Insert/Del key related key binding definitions for cut/copy/paste on win32 platform to the text editing context. Since we are close to 3.0 we do not want to take the risk to change the key bindings for cut/copy/paste in the global context. This PR is a reminder to discuss post 3.0 whether these key bindings should be moved to the general context.
Removing the 3.1 milestone, just to keep things clean for now. I'll be doing a pass of all of my bugs after 3.0 is done. From the MSDN web site, we were able to find the following: "The system supports shortcut assignments available in earlier versions of Microsoft Windows (ALT+BACKSPACE, SHIFT+INSERT, CTRL+INSERT, SHIFT+DELETE). You should consider supporting them (though not documenting them) to support the transition of users." "http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnwue/html/appxb.asp"
I would like to do this migration during the 3.1 M6 timeframe. Dani: Will you have a moment at some point to move these bindings from "org.eclipse.ui.editors" to "org.eclipse.ui"? Perhaps sometime after the integration build this week? We need to make the change at the same time to avoid introducing conflicts.
Sure. I can directly move them to org.eclipse.ui if you want.
Okay, if you want to do so, feel free. Just bear in mind: + All the platform-specific bindings to Ctrl+Insert should be removed (e.g., Motif, etc.) + The new syntax (e.g., M1+INSERT) is preferred to the old syntax (e.g., Ctrl+Insert).
Fixed in HEAD of org.eclipse.ui and org.eclipse.ui.editors. Unrelated issue is covered in bug 86184. Doug please verify.
The change looks like the change I wanted. Thanks. I'll verify during the 3.1 M6 test pass....
Verified the plugin.xml. I'm on Motif, so testing the Windows case specifically is difficult. Please re-open this bug if you have problems with it on Windows.
