Yes. All the resource actions in the Navigator view, including Copy, Move, Delete, Build, and Refresh, are available as API. These actions are found in the org.eclipse.ui.actions package of the org.eclipse.ui.ide plug-in. These actions expect a selection of either IResource objects or IAdaptable objects that are able to adapt to IResource. You must either install the actions as selection change listeners, such as on a TreeViewer, or supply them with the selection before running them:
IResource r = ...;//resource to delete IStructuredSelection ss = new StructuredSelection(r); DeleteResourceAction delete = new DeleteResourceAction(shell); delete.selectionChanged(ss); delete.run();
