Contribute command menu item to "legacy" menu? [message #333850]

Fri, 09 January 2009 07:27

Eclipse User

I need to put a command handler menu item (using org.eclipse.ui.menus
extension point) to a menu created by another plugin using
org.eclipse.ui.actionSets.

I can't figure out a proper URI. Lets say another plugin contributes to
the location I need using following menubarPath -
com.xyz.menu/someSeparator. What would be the matching URI? I tried both
menu:com.xyz.menu and menu:org.eclipse.ui.main.menu/com.xyz.menu with no
effect.

Best regards,
Eugene

You would have to replicate the menu structure in your
org.eclipse.ui.menus and place the command in it.

actionSets can see o.e.ui.menus menu structure, but no one can see menus
defined in actionSets (not even other actionSets)
