Does eclipse plug-in architecture provide the functionality to enable and disable the standard menu buttons of eclipse. There is a requirement in my application to disable build sub menu under project menu, using a parameter's value.

Please provide some pointers to the solution. I am able to add my own menu items but could not find a way to edit standard eclipse menu items.

Thanks in advance.

In an RCP app you create things like the build menu in your ActionBarAdvisor, usually using org.eclipse.ui.actions.ActionFactory for common actions.

If you are simply a plugin in the eclipse workbench, you do not have access to those action/menu items.
