For other readers, org.netbeans.modules.html.editor.ViewAction is a nice example of this, but... >> Hope it helps, > > Thank you very much for this suggestion, Boris. That sounds like a good > direction to explore. ...I'm afraid I couldn't get this to work. Here's the problem I am facing: - My URI-taking action is a simple ActionListener and I would like to keep it that way. - If I now create a ContextAwareAction, I can convert whatever it finds in the lookup into a URI in createContextAwareInstance, but then I need to return an Action. - But I have only an ActionListener. I looked through org.openide.awt.Actions to see whether I can call one of the methods that are used under the hood for the ActionListener -> Action conversion, but they are either non-public or hardcoded to Utilities.actionsGlobalContext(), so I can really get my URI injected into the ActionListener. Any suggestions how to proceed?
