<objectContribution
objectClass="org.eclipse.core.resources.IProject"
adaptable="true"
id="org.apache.cactus.eclipse.ui.update">
<action
label="Update"
icon=""
class="action.actions.SampleAction"
menubarPath="additions"
enablesFor="1"
id="org.apache.cactus.eclipse.ui.UpdateAction">
</action>
</objectContribution>
</extension>

why should I use "adaptable="true""?and what's the useful of "adaptable"?
could anyone help me?

Robbin,

So it looks like you got a little further hunting down information, but
this too is not a VE question. Use
news://news.eclipse.org/eclipse.newcomer or
news://news.eclipse.org/eclipse.platform for general questions not
specifically about VE. As far as I know, the adaptable indicates that
something that is able to adapt itself to be a project should also be
considered as a target for your action.
