Find Project locations in Project Explorer (Eclipse)

Question

I\'ve added a button in the context menu to execute only when you right click in the Project Explorer window. I want to be able to grab each project in the Project Explorer wind

Answer 1

Use the selection data from the selection provider:

IStructuredSelection sel =   
     (IStructuredSelection)viewpart.getSite().getSelectionProvider().getSelection(); 

Object selObj = sel.getFirstElement();

IProject project =
   (IProject)Platform.getAdapterManager().getAdapter(selObj, IProject.class);

... might return null if selection is not the project

String name = project.getName();

IPath location = project.getLocation();

To get all the projects use:

IWorkspace workspace = ResourcesPlugin.getPlugin().getWorkspace();

IProject [] projects = workspace.getRoot().getProjects();
