Hi,
In my plugin, I have a pop up menu with menu item 'X' and I want to add submenu to this menu item

and the number and labels of menu items in the submenu and their action will change.

I think I can't do this from plugin.xml, so how to do this programatically?

Do you create the entire context menu in one of your views, and register it? You could add an IMenuListener to the appropriate MenuManager in that case.

You can also still use org.eclipse.ui.menus/menuContribution. Just contribute a dynamic element and implement org.eclipse.ui.actions.CompoundContributionItem
