How to modify the keyboard shortcuts in Eclipse IDE?

Question

Title more or less says it all. Specifically, I\'ve become increasingly annoyed that in order to run an ant script I have to use Alt+Shift+x

Answer 1

Window > Preferences > General > Keys

In particular, edit the "Run Ant Build" command.

Answer 2

For mac that would be

Eclipse > Preferences > General > Keys

Answer 3

For Windows:

Window > Preferences > General > Keys

Answer 4

As a side note make sure your newly mapped Shortcut won't have any conflicts on the right of the Keys window/menu.

If so choose a combination that will work; doesn't have any conflicts with existing ( default ) settings.

Hope this helps.

Answer 5

Pressing Ctrl + Shift + L will open the current list of defined shortcuts, again pressing Ctrl + Shift + L will open preference page from where the shortcuts can be modified.
