[Solved]-Eclipse: Converting actions in commands for a specific view-eclipse

sorry, i should have waited a bit longer before asking, i figured it out!

i changed the,

ihandlerservice handlerservice = (ihandlerservice) getsite().getservice(ihandlerservice.class); 

to

ihandlerservice handlerservice = (ihandlerservice) platformui.getworkbench().getservice(ihandlerservice.class);

and it worked. i will leave the question in case it helps other people.
