Re: Database Explorer: custom shortcut or action

Hej Kovi,

> I don't know how to register a keyboard shortcut for an action that
Database Explorer provides. Action is called "Execute Command" and it opens
an SQL Editor.

Register it via layer.xml

I documented it at http://wiki.netbeans.org/DevFaqAddShortCutForAction


> if I create my own action and put a keyboard shortcut on it I don't know
how to open the SQL Editor. I imagine it is done via SQLEditorSupport
class, but the package that this class is in seens to be private.

here it is the action
http://hg.netbeans.org/core-main/file/tip/db/src/org/netbeans/modules/db/explorer/action/ExecuteCommandAction.java

At http://wiki.netbeans.org/DevFaqInvokeActionProgrammatically you will
find several ways to invoke the action. Make sure to provide correct
objects in the lookup. See the source code above.

With kind regards, markiewb
