How to add parameters to CommandContributionItemParameter [message #734307]

Hi,

I want to add parameters to a CommandContributionItemParameter. I have the following code:

Map<String, Object> commandParamametersMap = new HashMap<String, Object>();
commandParamametersMap.put("name",  object);
param.parameters = commandParamametersMap;

This does not throw an Exception but the CommandContributionItem I create from this paramater is not displayed in the context menu. It is displayed when not passing parameters to it. Is there a convenient way to pass parameters to my CommandContributionItemParameter?

How is your command defined? You can only pass an object into it if that object is a String, or you define a parameter converter.

Hi,

I found out that I need to have parameters connected to my command in plugin.xml. These ones I connected to parameter converters. This works fine for me. Thanks for
your reply.
