Re: User Key Actions - RDi 9.0

Thierry got there first, but additionally you need to assign the new action to a keypress. You can do it through the LPEX user action and user key action sections in the RDP Preferences screen, or you can get your plugin to do it.

lpexView.defineAction("toPrefixArea", new ToPrefixArea ());
lpexView.doDefaultCommand("set keyAction.c-a-s-p toPrefixArea"); // ctrl-alt-shift-P

I do that in a custom user profile, but I guess you could do it in your activator class.

The class that you specify for the Lpex preload extension point in your plugin.xml file needs to implement com.ibm.lpex.alef.LpexPreload which has only the void preload() method. That method can be empty.
I usually specify the activator class for the plugin for that extension point as it's more related to the plugin rather than the action.
