It would be nice if there were a command for the "Open Manifest" action in the "PDE Tools" menu that had a key binding, and would work on the currently selected resource or active editor.
I'd be happy to work on this - and I'd appreciate it once it was done! :-) Curtis, could you transfer it to me?
Finding a useful, but free key binding, may be difficult. At a minimum having the command available on the keys pref page will be useful.
I've fixed this and committed it to my github fork of eclipse.pde.ui. First time I've used Git etc, so I'm just getting to grips with the concepts! The commit is available at https://github.com/ind1go/eclipse.pde.ui/commit/06c4256a87bef2175c2f28f25b00ae58733f176e, from which you can hopefully pull it into your repo and make any changes you think necessary. The command is currently set to the memorable keystroke Ctrl+Shift+Alt+M. You should be able to hit it when focused on most resources and get the relevant manifest. I've updated "Open Manifest" from action-based to command/handler-based, and as such have renamed OpenManifestAction to OpenManifestHandler. Hope that's all OK - let me know if a plain old patch would be more appreciated!
Can you please attach the patch to this bug. I'm not aware if the Eclipse Foundation has defined a way to do due diligence (ip log) for github.
Created attachment 203058 [details] Patch of commit 06c4256a87bef2175c2f28f25b00ae58733f176e Sure thing - attached.

The fix adds the command/key binding as promised. Changes look good. It looks like this is an approved process. I think we have followed all of the necessary steps. Fixed in master http://git.eclipse.org/c/pde/eclipse.pde.ui.git/commit/?id=ea44007a37c60f475268c5a5a97c0fa3801ec5e1
