Add shortcut for "Force File Synchronization" in project's context menu

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi Andrei and Eclipse folks,

This feature is something that I'm missing a lot. When working on user
interface, this button is one of the most frequently clicked one :-) For  
javascripts, CSS and JSPs to be synchronized between my workspace and the 
deployed application on the server.

Right-clicking project's context menu and clicking the button is very time 
demanding. When modifying stuff 10 times a minute.

Thank you

I've committed the fix (you have manually assign key to the "FileSync" command, 
because I couldn't find good not already reserved key sequence). Some time 
later I will upload new version, feel free to build it for yourself.
Regards,
Andrei

Thank you Andrei, it helps a lot ... I'm not sure if it should automatically 
sync when saving a file (ctrl + s),  but for this project I'm working on, it 
doesn't.  I remember that saving a file used to trigger fileSync, some time ago 
... Maybe I'm wrong.

There is a little problem, it doesn't  recognize the project scope of the 
edited file. Unless I click on the project in project explorer, the hotkey 
action throws an exception, without a stacktrace  Could not run FileSync 
builder - project is null!

Any update on this ?  If you set up a key binding to FileSync, no matter when 
(In Windows, Javascript View), you have to click on the project in 
project/package explorer for it to work ... Otherwise it doesn't work or throws 
Could not run FileSync builder - project is null!

I simply do not have free time for it. Feel free to provide a patch.

I am experiencing the same issue: "Could not run FileSync builder - project is 
null!"
What a pity, it's such a nice plugin

a keyboard shortcut macro can be more time saver
