How to contribute "Toggle Breakpoint" with org.eclipse.ui.menus extension point [message #929851]

Hi,

the API documentation still shows how to register a "Toggle breakpoint" action "the old way" (with editorActions and popupMenus).
This used to be fine, but now with Eclipse 4 it causes many warnings, yet I have been unable to find how I am supposed to achieve the same effect (double click in the ruler to enable or disable a breakpoint) with org.eclipse.ui.menus extension.

Did anyone succeed in doing that? After all, even JDT and Xtext both still use the deprecated editorActions and others.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Matthieu

Dear all,

I have a similar problem, but for the popup menu on the ruler bar.
I have the following elements in my plugin.xml.

   	<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.handlers">
		<handler 
			class="io.sarl.lang.ui.SARLExecutableExtensionFactory:org.eclipse.debug.ui.actions.RulerToggleBreakpointActionDelegate"
			commandId="io.sarl.lang.SARL.breakpoint.ToggleBreakpointCommand">
			<activeWhen>
				<reference definitionId="io.sarl.lang.SARL.Editor.opened"/>
			</activeWhen>
		</handler>
	</extension>
	<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.commands">
		<command
			description="%action.label.0"
			id="io.sarl.lang.SARL.breakpoint.ToggleBreakpointCommand"
			name="%action.label.0"/>
	</extension>
	<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.menus">
		<menuContribution locationURI="popup:io.sarl.lang.SARL.RulerContext?after=debug">
	      <command 
	            commandId="io.sarl.lang.SARL.breakpoint.ToggleBreakpointCommand" 
	            id="io.sarl.lang.SARL.rulerContextMenu.toggleBreakpointAction"/>
                 </menuContribution>
	</extension>

The old version of my plugin.xml was:

   <extension point="org.eclipse.ui.popupMenus">
      <viewerContribution
         targetID="io.sarl.lang.SARL.RulerContext"
         id="io.sarl.lang.SARL.RulerPopupActions">
         <action
            label="%action.label.0"
            class="io.sarl.lang.ui.SARLExecutableExtensionFactory:org.eclipse.debug.ui.actions.RulerToggleBreakpointActionDelegate"
            menubarPath="debug"
            id="io.sarl.lang.SARL.rulerContextMenu.toggleBreakpointAction">
         </action>
      </viewerContribution>
   </extension>

My problem in the new version of my plugin.xml is that the type "org.eclipse.debug.ui.actions.RulerToggleBreakpointActionDelegate" is not a IHandler.
I have not found the corresponding handler.

Does anyone have an idea?

Stéphane.
