Hi,
I am trying to add my own menu items to the new wizard extension. So if
write something like this in my plugin.xml
<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.newWizards">
<category
name="Foo"
id="com.ibm.test1">
</category>
<wizard
id = "com.ibm.test2"
name = "TESTING"
class="com.ibm.test22"
category="com.ibm.test1">
<selection class="org.eclipse.core.resources.IResource"/>
</wizard>
</extension>
This creates the option "Foo" under "Other". So the users would have to
right click on a resource, select New->Other->Foo.
How do I add the "Foo" option to the main category or to the category
containing "Folder" and "File"? If this is done, the users can select
New->Foo.
Thanks
-Kiran

Hi, Kiran
You need to add actions extension to your plugin xml. Please see below
articles from eclipse site they will help you a lot.
"Contributing Actions to the Eclipse Workbench" Simon Arsenault (OTI)
The Eclipse Platform is an open and extensible platform. This article
explains in detail how the Workbench can be extended to add new actions
and provides guidance to the plug-in developers on how they can design for
extensibility.
and
"Using Perspectives in the Eclipse UI" Dave Springgay's article, take a
look
in "Extending an Existing Perspective" for more details on how to
contribute to perpective actions.

Antonio
