Commands are the new mechanism in 3.2 for key bindings and contributing to the menus, tool bars and status line. This talk will explain what commands are, and how to use them. The key binding architecture will be explained, as well as how to contribute commands to the menus. If time permits, a short example migration from actions to commands will be shown.

Doug started working on Eclipse just after 2.1 had shipped. He works on the Platform UI team, and is generally responsible for commands, contexts, contributions, coolbar, editor management and key bindings. Doug is best identified by his huge Alienware laptop (see photo) running Gentoo.
