In your ContextAwareAction, you could use a delegate to your
ActionListener. Something like:
//Create an instance of your ActionListener, pass the URI
MyActionListenerImpl al = new MyActionListenerImpl(uri);
//Return a simple delegate
AbstractAction ret = new AbstractAction() {
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
al.actionPerformed(e);
}
};
ret.setEnabled(uri != null);
