Two types of Menus? [message #461722]

I'm writing record/replay code that processes MenuDetect and Selection
events from Menus. I'm running this on an EMF-based plugin and seeing
some odd results. There seem to be two types of menus. When I
right-click on an unselected table cell in the "Properties" table, I get
an SWT.MenuDetect notification (with Event.widget == Table), and then when
I select an item in the table, I get an SWT.Selection notification. If
the table cell is selected prior to the right-click, I also get an
SWT.MenuDetect notification (with Event.widget == Text), but no
SWT.Selection notification on item selection. In this latter case, I
notice that the menu is that same as the menu when right-clicking in some
Windows apps (such as some of the control panels). Is there any way to
get notification of selection in these menus?

Thanks,
Larry
