I have implemented following classes :
1. MyResolutionGenerator implements IMarkerResolutionGenerator
2. MyMarkerResolution implements IMarkerResolution

In plugin.xml :

<extension
point="org.eclipse.core.resources.markers"
id="com.example.abc.xyz.mymarker">
<persistent value="false"/>
</extension>

<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.ide.markerResolution"
class="com.example.abc.xyz.MyMarkerResolution">
<markerResolutionGenerator
class="com.example.abc.xyz.MyResolutionGenerator"
markerType="com.example.abc.xyz.mymarker" >
</markerResolutionGenerator>
</extension>

Also, I have created markers as following :
IMarker marker = file.createMarker(IMarker.PROBLEM);

Can someone please explain me what all these values mean ? I am really confused between - id, name, class, markerType .
I simple want that for my marker, the quickfixes are shown which I am generating in MyResolutionGenerator

The id of an extension is used to refer to it in code. If you don't need that, id can be left out.
name is a human readable display name in most cases. The Externalize Strings Wizard under Exporting on the Overview page of plugin.xml replaces the values of these with language keys.
class is the fully qualified name of the Java class that implements the extension point's interface. See the description for an extension point to find the right interface. If Eclipse won't show those to you, you need to install some more bundles into your IDE. Unfortunately I can't help with which, you'll need to search the Internet.
markerType is the identifier of a category of marker, it's usually very generic. Eclipse defines Java constants for the types of the standard markers in org.eclipse.core.resources.IMarker.
