| <p>Provides a set of classes that implement a <code>Service</code> |
| that provides an extensible way to handle commonly used (global) actions |
| in different views and editors. When a <code>GlobalAction</code> is |
| registered as the action handler for a retargetable action in a given |
| workbench part, the {@link |
| org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.common.ui.services.action.global.GlobalActionHandlerService} |
| is consulted to do the real work in running the action. The service |
| allows different handlers to be used depending on the nature of the element(s) |
| selected in the workbench part.</p> |
| |
| <p>Global actions are action handlers for Eclipse <i>retargetable</i> |
| actions. The real action handler work is delegated to the {@link |
| org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.common.ui.services.action.global.IGlobalActionHandler}s |
| provided by the {@link |
| org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.common.ui.services.action.global.GlobalActionHandlerService} |
| for the active workbench part.</p> |
| |
| <p>In order to contribute global action handlers to the service, clients |
| should use the <code>org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.common.ui.services.action.globalActionHandlerProviders</code> |
| extension point. The provider implementation specified in the extension |
| point should subclass the {@link |
| org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.common.ui.services.action.global.AbstractGlobalActionHandlerProvider} |
| class in this package.</p> |
| |
| <p>Modeling platform global action handlers should subclass the {@link |
| org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.common.ui.services.action.global.AbstractGlobalActionHandler} |
| class.</p> |
