Re: [platform-ui-dev] Global menu enablement

The build actions obtain the selection
from the workbench window selection service. To make this work for your
view, you just need to register the selection provider for your view via
the IWorkbenchSite. The existing Navigator view does this in the same way:

public
void
createPartControl(Composite parent) {
        TreeViewer
viewer = createViewer(parent);
        ...
        getSite().setSelectionProvider(viewer);
}

The build actions that operate on a selection
will work for either a selection of IResource objects, or a selection of
IAdaptable objects that can adapt to IResource.
