Hi All,
I have to add an option under "Project" in menu bar.So when user clicks
on "Project" in menu bar the drop down should contain this option.
I am able to add option to menu bar before/after project but not in the
list displayed in "Project".This option has to come after "Close Project".

<extension point="org.eclipse.ui.menus">
<menuContribution
locationURI="menu:org.eclipse.ui.main.menu?after=project">
<command commandId="de.vogella.plugin.htmlconverter.convert"
label="Create HTML"
style="push">
</command>
</menuContribution>
</extension>

Thanks all.

Hi,

Try:
menu:project?after=buildAutomatically

The best way of finding an existing ID for a menu is plugin-spy for
menus which is described here:

Best regards, Lars
