Object contribution and Project Explorer [message #333854]

Hi,

I have been reading the article Contributing Actions to the Eclipse
Workbench.

Following the example, I have been able to add a context menu item to an
object in the Navigator view, but I can't see how to get the same
context menu item to an object selected in the Project Explorer view.
Any suggestions?

This is my XML:

<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.popupMenus">
<objectContribution
id="org.eclipse.ui.articles.action.contribution.popup.object "
objectClass="org.eclipse.core.resources.IFile"
nameFilter="*.java">
<filter
name="projectNature"
value="org.eclipse.jdt.core.javanature">
</filter>
<action
id="org.eclipse.ui.articles.action.contribution.object.action1 "
label="Object Action 1"
icon="icons/flash16x16.gif"
menubarPath="additions"
class="my.utilities.MyObjectDelegate">
</action>
</objectContribution>
</extension>

Thanks,

Derek

You might need to make it adapt ... the project explorer is probably
showing ICompilationUnits not IFiles

Sorry, but how do I make it adapt? Is this something I can do in the xml?

Thanks,

Yes, please read the org.eclipse.ui.popupMenus Extension Point
Description (you are looking for an adapt attribute)
