Old time issue. It's not possible. But you can make some tricks with current
editor...

Thanks!

Oh yes, it's possible!

I'm currently inside a SettingsEditor. Though this works:

class MySettingsEditor extends SettingsEditor {

// unrelated stuff omitted...

private Project getCurrentProject() {
WindowManager wm = WindowManager.getInstance();
Project[] projects =
ProjectManager.getInstance().getOpenProjects();
for (int i = 0; i < projects.length; i++) {
if (SwingUtilities.isDescendingFrom(getComponent(),
wm.suggestParentWindow(projects+))) {
return projects+;
}
}
return null;
}
}

Hello Martin,

:)) Yes from DispatchThread... But that is active project in real? Is it
the same as modal dialog is show?

So, can i ask in that place you need to know active project? Just for interest.

Thanks!

I use it to display some information in the currently visible state bar
from within an IDE configuration panel. So I don't care if it's really
the active project the user is working with, I only care that the
project's state bar is currently visible.

Now i catch :)
If you have Project level Configurable, then simple method to get current
project - ask it from Project level component.

Yes, that would have been the simple case. But unfortunately I'm in an
application level configurable...

In this case you get right solution :))
Also you can use:
com.intellij.ide.DataManager to get current DataContext.

Project project = (Project)DataManager.getInstance().getDataContext().getData(DataConstants.PROJECT);

Yes, unless the plugin should work with IDEA 4.5... :(
