org.eclipse.ui
Interface IActionDelegateWithEvent

All Known Implementing Classes:
org.eclipse.debug.internal.ui.actions.ExecutionAction

public interface IActionDelegateWithEvent

This interface is a mixin interface for action delegates, adding the ability to examine the triggering SWT event when it is run. If an action delegate implements this interface, then runWithEvent(IAction, Event) is called instead of run(IAction).

Clients should implement this interface, in addition to IActionDelegate (or subinterface), if they need to examine the triggering event. Otherwise, they should simply implement IActionDelegate (or subinterface).

NOTE: This is experimental API, which may change in the future.

Since:
2.0
