In G. R. Prakash's blog, an example of the About Dialog in Eclipse is given.
http://blog.eclipse-tips.com/2009/02/customizing-about-dialo g.html

According to this example, defining a menu contribution in the plugin.xml with the toolbar:org.eclipse.ui.installationDialog.buttonbar as locationURI brings upt the toolbar.

If i want to define a toolbar in my JFace dialog, how can I do it?

Thanks,
Saurabh

Read some of the links in my signature for defining the contributions etc.

You can then use
org.eclipse.ui.menus.IMenuService.populateContributionManage r(ContributionManager,
String) to populate your ToolBarManager (which actually creates the
toolbar).

Don't forget to releaseContributions(*) when the dialog is finally done.
